Wet golden fur, a lowered head and visible front paws fill the view above shallow gray water and narrow ripples.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis close view puts the bear’s head and front legs at the centre of the photograph. Its coat is wet, with long strands of fur hanging toward the shallow water, and a small piece of food remains at its mouth. I find the image compelling for those ordinary details of feeding: the lowered head, the visible paws and the narrow band of ripples beneath them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI made the photograph in 2011. The bear fills much of the frame, with its body continuing beyond the left edge. That crop brings attention to the face without losing the texture of the larger animal. The ears, eyes and dark nose are clearly defined, while the water behind them stays quiet and softly rendered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe colour is an essential part of what I enjoy here. Golden brown fur contrasts with the muted grey water, and darker wet strands give the legs extra weight. Close to the mouth, the finer details become more delicate. The composition moves from the broad mass of the coat to the smaller features of the face, then down to the surface where the paws meet the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs wildlife photography for a wall, this image offers an intimate view of a brown bear engaged in a simple activity. I would choose it for the warm tones and the strong presence of the animal rather than a sweeping landscape. Its appeal grows through the details: the texture of wet fur, the expression of the face and the small movements visible at the waterline.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e© Dan Kosmayer, 2011\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dan Kosmayer Photography","offers":[{"title":"5 × 7 inches (12.7 × 17.8 cm)","offer_id":50571335237711,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6 × 8 inches (15.2 × 20.3 cm)","offer_id":67592429862991,"sku":null,"price":29.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 × 10 inches (20.3 × 25.4 cm)","offer_id":40739305160783,"sku":null,"price":34.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8 × 12 inches (20.3 × 30.5 cm)","offer_id":67593157345359,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 × 14 inches (27.9 × 35.6 cm)","offer_id":40739305193551,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11 × 17 inches (27.9 × 43.2 cm)","offer_id":67593983197263,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 × 16 inches (30.5 × 40.6 cm)","offer_id":40739305226319,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12 × 18 inches (30.5 × 45.7 cm)","offer_id":67594725556303,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 × 20 inches (40.6 × 50.8 cm)","offer_id":40739305259087,"sku":"","price":63.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"16 × 24 inches (40.6 × 61.0 cm)","offer_id":67595644403791,"sku":null,"price":69.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18 × 24 inches (45.7 × 61.0 cm)","offer_id":40739305291855,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20 × 28 inches (50.8 × 71.1 cm)","offer_id":67600649584719,"sku":null,"price":89.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24 × 36 inches (61.0 × 91.4 cm)","offer_id":41185707327567,"sku":"","price":105.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"28 × 40 inches (71.1 × 101.6 cm)","offer_id":67597007454287,"sku":null,"price":115.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"30 × 40 inches (76.2 × 101.6 cm)","offer_id":41185759363151,"sku":"","price":125.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A3 (29.7 × 42.0 cm)","offer_id":43805485563983,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A2 (42.0 × 59.4 cm)","offer_id":43804793438287,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A1 (59.4 × 84.1 cm)","offer_id":43804850618447,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A0 (84.1 x 118.9 cm)","offer_id":67747687006287,"sku":null,"price":139.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/9685\/2047\/files\/Brown-Bear-Feeding-in-Shallow-Water-Colour-Wildlife-Photography-1.jpg?v=1791538063","url":"https:\/\/dinkosmayer.com\/products\/brown-bear-eating-clams-art-print","provider":"Dan Kosmayer Fine Art Photography","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
