Georgina at the Falls
She got tired of posing and fell asleep on me (not really) but she did drift off. You'll see she has a new scar on the side of her face she continues to take on most bears to protect her fishing area. The scar could have been from Scruffy she was at the top of her game this year and not taking orders from Georgina. It was a cub bearing year for Scruff but no sign of a cub, I do believe she may be beyond her cub years.
It took many attempts to get Georgina sharp at 1/13 of a second. I used my 300mm f/4 PF VR, ISO 64 at f/8. More environment and less bear different for me but after years of photographing her, it was time to try something new.
