Mr. Wenner, those are exceptionally nice images of those bears. Well done! I can't wait to use my R5 and my 500 f4 on bears, but this week I'll be climbing very high into the Alaska Range for Dall rams with that setup.

Thanks for the very kind words Jim. You are going to have a blast with the Rams. I tried to find some down near Turnagain Arm but no luck. To say I'm envious of your area wildlife would be a huge understatement.
Have a great time and bring home and post up some nice wallhangers! I/we would love to see them.

Give it a few months until everyone catches up with developing the profiles for the R5/R6. Right now, DPP has the best set of profiles and Adobe has one but it is less than stellar. Capture One released theirs, though I don't know enough about it to comment. Ascribing "color" to systems is difficult because with some work, one can manipulate any image to appear more like another system. Heck, people spend many $ and hours trying to simulate old film looks. Nonetheless, while I loved my Sony images because of the native sharpness and resolution, it took a while to adjust to the underlying noise and need for not only NR but significant PP. The RAW Sony images had issues in the greens/yellows which always had to be addressed. Additionally, for whatever reason, the color transitions don't seem as "creamy" if there is such a description? For most images, I find Canon's WB is better though some have complained that the images (and skin) are too warm and one has to watch out for the highlights. This isn't the case with images processed with DPP. As a rule, my Canon R5 RAW images need less overall basic PP than those out of my Sony bodies, though all images will require creative PP.

As a cat lover this really saddens me.
Yes this was a hard blow for sure. The event keeps on repeating in my mind. I hope time will heal that.
Thanks for your sympathies.

So very sorry for your loss so hard loosing a family member
Thank you Ray. Because we are a breeder, these two boys were going to their new homes in 6 weeks from now. But even though the kittens do not stay with us after 15 weeks, there is still a bond between us and these playful little beings. So not only did we have to deal with the loss, but also inform the new owners that their little baby isn't coming in 6 weeks. But we will overcome this i'm sure. Ren (the little fellla on the right) is doing fine and doesn't seem to miss his brother so cat's deal with this much better than us humans.

Remembered after the last post that I did a couple actual swimming shots with the R5 and 85 1.4. Not the lens I would normally use for this shot, but I didn't take it.
Having lost my canine soulmate back in 2018 to a very sudden tragic accident I feel your anguish. It is very hard to cope with, and only time lessens (but never completely takes away the pain of the loss...
