Dailies
These images are ones shot to post in the daily community on smugmug. I've been participating in this community for about twelve years. For the first few years, I tried to always post a shot taken either that day or the day before. Now, although I try to shoot everyday, I don't necessarily post the images on the same day they are shot.

8/19/12 - Black bear; best viewed in the largest sizes. Photographed at Bear Country, SD. When I took this shot, there were probably about forty bears within the range of my camera. They were all moving around. It was a hot day; this one has just gotten himself wet down by a hose. I found the bears to be difficult to shoot, as their faces were so dark. I had to use the exposure compensation to lighten the face enough to pull out the detail there.
Thanks for the comments on my daughter's cat. Much appreciated.
Constructive criticism is always welcome.

on July 28, 2016This is a great shot of this bear. I especially appreciate it, looking at the very bad shots I got of a black bear in Alaska recently.
