Brown Bear sow and two cubs, Lake Clark National Park, Alaska.
This was with my Canon 7D with a 2x converter on a 70-200 at 140 – in other words I had trouble getting these guys in the frame with just a 70-20o mm lens !

That’s awesome Ron. Looks like a set up family portrait, those bears must take direction really well… Great job, I’m loving your bear pics!
I love bears, great shot!
Another beauty, Ron. I never have the problem of being too close! Also, congrats on the Bing home page photo today. Make a screen shot of it before it goes away in a few days. I had an image on the page a year or so ago but only heard about it afterwards and they only go back a few days.
You are making me jealous Ron, looks like a great trip. Delightful pose in that scene and the fur still looks pretty good for this late in the year also.
Thanks everyone!
@Ryan It does look staged!
@eileen Thanks!
@Milo Wow, that is my time-lapse. I didn’t know about that, thanks for the heads up! How did you know that was mine? Congratulations on the current cover of Alaska Magazine!
@Patrick Thanks! Some were just starting to molt when we left.
@ Milo – now I see the credit.
This looks totally posed–fantastic! Are those the same 2 newborn cubs from 2 years ago? I think I recognize them. I thought they leave their mom at the age of 2.
They are Scott – they are growing up fast! Thanks!
