Wonderful set of photographs Alphonsus! Great job on nailing the exposures and colors- the bears' fur looks great. I like the cub in #1 hamming it up-very cute.

These are really great, well taken. Are these all taken from the vehicle you got so many eye level shots. Love the image of the fox.

All taken from outside of a vehicle, mostly laying on the ground. Can't shoot from eye level from a Tundra Buggy or from inside a vehicle!
