Scully saw her first bear a few days ago and although we were too busy staying well out of his way to get any good photos we did manage to get this nice image later in the day, which serves as a fun memento of the adventure and how beautiful this part of the country is. This image was made using an 85mm lens, one of my favorite focal lengths. The way that it slightly compresses space can produce some beautiful images close up or at a distance and at a shallow depth of field this focal length can create a nice, soft, ethereal feeling around the subject.
*85mm, f1.4, 1/1250 sec, ISO 400
