Well captured Russ, such super animals. Might be an idea to clone out the tree coming out his back in the first

lovely shots
im going to york for 1 week in june can you tell me where the park is as i might go for a day

 

[Rustydon]

Thanks for kind comments - much appreciated

Stan, I'll give the cloning a go (but I'm no expert).

Holty, the YWP is about 25miles south of York near the town of Doncaster - easily reached from the AI(M) or M18 motorways.

This is a big change from the bird world Russ. Having said that No2 is my favourite.

Thanks fellas - number 2 is my choice too!

[Rustydon]

Thanks Chris

- Even more improvements are taking place at YWT at present, and hopefully we will have more Polar Bears in the near future as their enclosures are nearing completion!

Lovely images, and a cracking bit of cloning.

Many thanks Ruth

The cloning was fairly simple in Lightroom 5 - the cluttered background helped!

No2 gets my vote - an almost natural shot

you took the tree out but left the shadow in

Very nice and as Les said, "very natural" in #2

 

[Rustydon]

Thanks all - comments much appreciated

you took the tree out but left the shadow in

True, Chris, but it took a sharp-eyed Staff Member to notice . Well spotted, but I'm afraid it will have to stay - I promise to take more care next time!

As a penance I suggest you say "Nikon" 10 times

As a penance I suggest you say "Nikon" 10 times

But that would be swearing for a committed Canon man
