I love number one but number three with the sow and cub nothing more powerful than giving life and you caught that Beautifully. all of them very well done❤
I liked photo number 1.It shows the strength of the bear and those long claws say, "Beware." Everything is so sharp; even the water droplets. The eyes show the bear is focused and running with purpose.
I love #2 - this photo shows the regal nature of the Grizzly and simply draws you in with her powerful, calculating gaze. Photo #1 is a very close second, showing the power, fierceness and gracefulness that these amazing animals have.
I'm for number 1 as it is full of action and that paw and claws brings out the the fact that the bear means business and you better get out of her way.
Photo three. I love the balance. It's almost like a mirror image into the past (or future) of the bear's life. I learn a lot from your video's, as I am planning to get out full time RVing to do exactly what you are now doing.
#1 is full of action, shows her power, her anger, her protective mother-instincts, in motion. #2 is mostly neutral for me. A nice pic. #3 brings out my own emotion, sadness at seeing a very old bear nearing the end of her life cycle, possibly completing her cycle with these cubs. There was another photo that I liked as well as # one, but I have no way of pinpointing for you which one it was. Beautiful, Tim.
Photo one is awesome for me. Raw explosive moment caught like just now! Photo 2 is great too! awesome Photos! Looks like you had a great time. Congratulations on a great bunch of pictures.
Tim, I'm a direct response copywriter. I Had to write you a note about your ad that HOOKED me so good I signed up. The thing is, I watch youtube all the time and 90% of people never catch my attention. Your ad that started with "If you were to take a phone of that tree, how would you do it? etc..." So... Damn... good. I'm sure you're killing it. I'll reach out to you another time. Take care!
So awesome to hear! It is great to know that my hook worked for that ad. I should make more just like that one. "If you were photographing this grizzly bear, how would you do it? " haha. Thanks for writing!
This is a good video, good info and amazing photography/scenery. It is hard to choose between those photos, but Photo 1 is a close #1 over the other two. All 3 are wonderful and paint a picture of the moments you had.
Nice vacation, Glad You Went? I like photos of the Griz # 2&3. Nice truck and camper, you might want to install a good winch and bumper. That muddy road look awful.
Thank you so much Lewie! It was super exciting to be there in that moment and the charge happened so fast I hardly knew it had happened. Good thing we were in a boat in deep water!
Really, I love them all, but number three is special. I have enjoyed your transformation class and it really has transformed my photography and way of thinking.
Awesome ! Loved all the photos.Photo # 1, I like the best -Mama Bear was waving .Keep up the great adventures Tim ! I really love wildlife photography & have started to capture a few photos myself just from taking your class's ! So inspiring ! Love these videos ! Happy New Year ! Jeni
Photo 1, explosive! I have come upon your channel by searching the RUclips community of photography. I’ve got to say you have me going through my photos to find my own “3”. Your amazing! If I had Facebook I’d join your team, so I’ll follow on IG and RUclips.
Thanks for sharing this awesome adventure and photos. Wish I could shoot photos and videos at the same time. Gotto do an adventure like this with two photographers.
Hi Marc, you are so right. My wife shot the video and I shot the stills. You definitely need two people, plus another person to drive the boat. We did a different grizzly bear trip last summer with just the two of us. I was almost impossible for me to take photos and drive the boat...obviously. But you need a third person for sure.
Number one is my pick and number three. I like the action and movement in one. In three I like the size comparison giving perspective of the two animals. For someone who spends half the year at sea I understand the difficulties of shooting on water and struggle with the metering
They each, tell a different story, so it is difficult to choose. However, I have selected # 3 shows the power of the mother and also the bond with her cub.
Yes Number 2 did it for me too. Beautiful BC! Loved all the shots...how exciting!!! If you could share your camera settings on some of these shots it helps us learn!
Outstanding!!! Love all three. If you ever get an opportunity (put it on your bucket list) - Give Katmai National Park (Katmai Falls) a try; I had an opportunity to go there and the bears and opportunities to capture a LOT of shots is unbelievable. It's a flight into Anchorage and then a float plane trip to Katamai....As we came into the Brooke's Lodge area we had to circle in the water as there was a sow and two cubs walking right down the beach. Keep up the great work!
Hi Keith! Yes, Katmai National Park is number one on my list for the next grizzly bear trip. In fact, we tried to get there in the summer of 2020 but covid stymied our plans. With that said, we got to experience this lesser known location and katmai is still there waiting for us to discover it. Hopefully in 2021 we will get there! Thanks for writing. Tim
Favourite: #1 -- the way she is slapping the water with her massive paws (to send a message to the intruder!) is a rarely seen or captured behaviour of these bears. If she could talk you'd have heard something like "Alright mister! That is close enough! Now I'm getting ticked off!"
Looks like an awesome trip. Heading there later this year. The 3 pics are awesome, but the face not being sharp on the first kills it for me. Anyway, awesome video. Thanks for sharing.
I prefer #1, on my big 4K computer screen it appears a little soft, but that could the photo size you included in the video as I watched it at 4K. Number 2 is my second favorite. Great video, wish I was there with you. Shows the time it takes to get one good photo, based on your comments that was about half a day or more.
Hi Tom, I think I exported the jpg of photo number one at 1920 pixels wide, and 4k video is 3840 pixels wide, so that is likely why it looks a little soft. The photo is pretty sharp at full size. Thanks for your comment Tom! It was definitely a fun experience and I am glad we were in a boat in deep water when that bear ran at us.
Awesome video! - - - This makes me want to get back into photography. - - - 7:44 - If you only want me to choose between those three shots, I'll have to go with #3. The composition is pretty much perfect & it tells a story. - - - You got a lot of really good shots that day and that's not easy when you're hold and looking through a 500mm zoom. You need a steady hand indeed. Can you imagine doing it with an old school 35mm SLR? Those lenses where HEAVY - LOL - and there was no video mode with 240fps to steal frames from. That's what I used 40 years ago and I still have all that old Nikon equipment - lol. I should probably sell it. The Nikor lenses are actually auto-focus. I wonder if they are still compatible with the new bodies??? Hmmmmm - - - Thanx for taking us along!
Number One For Me For sure. Awesome opportunity Tim. Thanks ever so much for sharing.
Number one! Movement, power, water... all great
I love number one but number three with the sow and cub nothing more powerful than giving life and you caught that Beautifully. all of them very well done❤
I liked photo number 1.It shows the strength of the bear and those long claws say, "Beware." Everything is so sharp; even the water droplets. The eyes show the bear is focused and running with purpose.
I cannot judge the best of the three. They are all tach sharp and gorgeous! Kudos.
I vote for #1. I love the paw and claws in the air as she defends her territory. Nyall London
#2 is my favourite. Wow fabulous photos
So much detailed description of the tour. Key points clearly explained. As if we were with you guys at the time. Very informative. Thanks!
Amazing trip - thanks for sharing. Love the first photo!
I love #2 - this photo shows the regal nature of the Grizzly and simply draws you in with her powerful, calculating gaze. Photo #1 is a very close second, showing the power, fierceness and gracefulness that these amazing animals have.
We absolutely love them all but number 3 was our favourite ❤️❤️
I like the paw in the air photo with the splashing water. By far, this is the best of the 3 that you posted.
#1 - it captured the moment that the bear to front of you and make viewers feel like you are in the scene. You feel the bear’s wilderness power.
Great tour 👍👍 I Think number 2 is very powerfull and a great shot👍
1 for sure! Great picture!
All three are exceptional. Photo two - the eyes, the texture of the fur, the expression ( here kitty kitty!) Very fun, very nice!
I'm for number 1 as it is full of action and that paw and claws brings out the the fact that the bear means business and you better get out of her way.
#1 is my favorite with the paw in the air. #2 is everything you said; it's an awesome photo but #1 is the winner for me. Loved the video, btw!!
I love number 1. Keep shooting these wonderful photos!
Photo three. I love the balance. It's almost like a mirror image into the past (or future) of the bear's life. I learn a lot from your video's, as I am planning to get out full time RVing to do exactly what you are now doing.
Photo 1, and photo 3 are my favs. Love the video.
one of my dreams ! Wow photo #1 is my favorite
It’s tough to pick between 3, but in my opinion, number 1edges out the rest. Wonderful job Tim!
Thanks George! It is pretty hard to ignore the drama from photo number one. Thanks for your vote.
1 is I like as it shows power and movement. Thank you for the hard work. Keep it up.
What a trip! Photo No. 1 would be one that I would strive for!
Great video Tim! I vote for pic #2. Thank you!
Your photos are amazing! It is hard to pick a favorite but I might favor #1.
Thank you Sheila!
You are a marvel, Tim. Love all 3 photos, but #1 I am partial to.
haha, thank you Kaohua! No grizzlies in Hawaií but you have such amazing landscapes to photograph. Would love to be there now!
I love all three but number 1 is my favorite
I like them all but I think #2 is the best.
#1 is full of action, shows her power, her anger, her protective mother-instincts, in motion. #2 is mostly neutral for me. A nice pic. #3 brings out my own emotion, sadness at seeing a very old bear nearing the end of her life cycle, possibly completing her cycle with these cubs. There was another photo that I liked as well as # one, but I have no way of pinpointing for you which one it was. Beautiful, Tim.
Photo one is awesome for me. Raw explosive moment caught like just now! Photo 2 is great too! awesome Photos! Looks like you had a great time. Congratulations on a great bunch of pictures.
Awesome!! Perth, Western Autralia #1...for me!!
Love the charging grizzly. You never disappoint Tim with your photos and your lessons.
Thank you so much Melanie!
Wow. Great adventure and beautiful photos. Love it.
Amazing trip and photos, Tim! The best photo is the first one because it expresses the bear's dynamic action so lively.
Photo no 1 is best for me Tim, I think the composition of motion power and wild is presented
Tim, I'm a direct response copywriter. I Had to write you a note about your ad that HOOKED me so good I signed up.
The thing is, I watch youtube all the time and 90% of people never catch my attention. Your ad that started with "If you were to take a phone of that tree, how would you do it? etc..."

So awesome to hear! It is great to know that my hook worked for that ad. I should make more just like that one. "If you were photographing this grizzly bear, how would you do it? " haha. Thanks for writing!
I absolutely loved the first photo. Showing her claws and nails demonstrated a fierce challenge about to ensue. Martha Leland, Manchester, CT
Hi Martha, don't you just love those claws! They look great from afar, but I would not want to see them close up. Thank you for writing! Tim
I would go for number 1. The power and action are exploding from this picture !!
Thank you Marcel!
Love all three images, but I am loving number #1 a bit more. Great work! Awesome.
Beautiful photos, and what a Majestic being!
Absolutely fantastic. No 1 is my best though - you nailed it!
Photo two is my favorite...shows strength, power and resolve!
Love the first one. It’s pretty amazing and also looks like she’s waving to you 😁
Photo 2 is my favourite- you captured it just at the right time
I liked #3 and yet all of them are very nice...
Photo one is my favorite. Motion, water movement and seeing that powerful paw (and claws) with fixed eyes make this for me..VGW
Really nice footage and so beautiful animals :)
Stay tuned and hope to see more from you!
Great effort. Thanks for sharing. Atleast we could see.. All the pics shown in the video are great, My personal favorite is 1st one ..
It felt so good. Thank you for seeing such material in the coming days
Great this video and the photos are awesome!! 🔥 I'll pick the number 3 because I loved the cub mirroring the mom 😄
I liked #1 the most, however, they were all great photos!
I like number 1 and 3, they are all spectacular❤️
This is a good video, good info and amazing photography/scenery. It is hard to choose between those photos, but Photo 1 is a close #1 over the other two. All 3 are wonderful and paint a picture of the moments you had.
Thank you Teresa!
I love photo #1 the best
No 1 ! Powerful and awesome
Love the first shot. I really enjoy how you walked us through your adventure. Thanks.
Thank you kerry!
Nice vacation, Glad You Went? I like photos of the Griz # 2&3. Nice truck and camper, you might want to install a good winch and bumper. That muddy road look awful.
Tim, I love photo #1 the best. It’s great how you capture and show the action of the grizzly charging you! Great job!
Thank you so much Lewie! It was super exciting to be there in that moment and the charge happened so fast I hardly knew it had happened. Good thing we were in a boat in deep water!
Cool video! What an experience to spend time with those bears!
Photo number two says it all
Really, I love them all, but number three is special. I have enjoyed your transformation class and it really has transformed my photography and way of thinking.
That is really great to hear JL. Thank you for letting me know. So awesome to hear about the improvements to your photography! Tim
Very nice!!!!!
Awesome ! Loved all the photos.Photo # 1, I like the best -Mama Bear was waving .Keep up the great adventures Tim ! I really love wildlife photography & have started to capture a few photos myself just from taking your class's ! So inspiring ! Love these videos ! Happy New Year ! Jeni
Can I say all of them, so jealous. But love living vicariously through you. Thank you.
Haha, thanks Tracy!
no. 2 is my favorite!
Very super photos! The recording is also good!
Photo one is just a amazing shot congrats
Photo 2...intense beauty!
Photo no. 1 seems to tell the story you wanted to convey.... Well done!
2 and 3 are absolutely mind blowing! I hope to plan on getting my first grizzly photo this late summer.
The number 3 for me !
Number 3 is my favorite
Photo 1, explosive!
I have come upon your channel by searching the RUclips community of photography.
I’ve got to say you have me going through my photos to find my own “3”.
Your amazing! If I had Facebook I’d join your team, so I’ll follow on IG and RUclips.
Wow, thank you so much Mo'Mo' Traveling!
1 is full of action, force, is “the Decisive Moment”.
Thanks for sharing this awesome adventure and photos. Wish I could shoot photos and videos at the same time. Gotto do an adventure like this with two photographers.
Hi Marc, you are so right. My wife shot the video and I shot the stills. You definitely need two people, plus another person to drive the boat. We did a different grizzly bear trip last summer with just the two of us. I was almost impossible for me to take photos and drive the boat...obviously. But you need a third person for sure.
@@TimShieldsPhotography have you seen the shots of the woman being attacked by a leopard and the husband took pictures?
how amazing it must have been to see those big super predators, would love to experience this one day
Make it happen Andrew. Start your research and planning! Thanks for your comment.
I like the 3rd one of course
Very nice Tim
I like no one best 🙏
I love number 1 the best
Number one is my pick and number three.
I like the action and movement in one. In three I like the size comparison giving perspective of the two animals.

Photo one: it capture the movement of the bear and the water; it is powerful!
Looks like an awesome trip. Heading there later this year. The 3 pics are awesome, but the face not being sharp on the first kills it for me. Anyway, awesome video. Thanks for sharing.
I liked Photo 1 - alive and coming at you.
#1 is my favorite.
Great video Tim.
I like the one with the mother and cub. But they are all good.
My favorite is mama with raised paw. The reason is being able to see water drops flying off showing the motion
Awesome!!
I prefer #1, on my big 4K computer screen it appears a little soft, but that could the photo size you included in the video as I watched it at 4K. Number 2 is my second favorite.
