Black Bear at Yellowstone National Park
That was the first time we saw a wild black bear. She had a cub following her but not visible in this picture. It as very late afternoon time before sunset so light was limited. I was using Canon 7D Mark II with a 100-400mm with f/5.6 max aperture. I couldn't get any satisfactory exposure due to limited light at reasonable ISO. I decided to expose for the sky and shot for the silhouette. It turns out I like this much better than a perfectly exposed picture on the bear.
If you're interested in seeing more Yellowstone photos and a guide to the park, we wrote an article for that: www.xjadventure.com/p/photographing-yellowstone-national-...
