Has to be a winner, Kathy -- what an incredible moment you have captured and with great detail. The composition is wonderful, too, with the silvery line of the fish arcing through the frame like that. #9139997

Stunning closeup capture, Kathy. The intense look in the bear's eyes, the painful look in the fish's eyes --- heartbreaking, in a way. But that's "only the strong survive" in a nutshell, isn't it?
CONGRATULATIONS on your well earned Second Place Winner! #9241792
