Artist's Comments

Polar bear cub Tom was having fun with almost adult Berta in the main exhibit of polar bears. Their fun involved an old tyre (now there's no tyre, now it's two pieces of an old tyre :D ) and splashing water.

polar bear (Ursus maritimus), Prague Zoo, Czech Republic

Critiques


:iconbubblywums:
I am in love with this photo. For something that happens so quickly, the composition is so perfect. The position of the bears head is great, getting a full view of the top of its' head.

This is a fantastic example of a perfect choice of settings, I can see all the tiny water droplets flying away from the bear. The water droplets look like little sparkles.

The reduced lighting adds a great atmosphere to the photo as well, especially in how well the head and ear is lit. The dark background really helps to emphasize the water droplets.

Really, not words of criticism here. You did an excellent job!

This is an excellent capture. The water bubbles, tone, and composition is also wonderful. Looking at this picture it is as if I can hear myself the water splash when the polar bear jumped into the water.
