This is an excellent photo. I love how the light is shining so bright on the side. The black and white effect is excellent. Your focus and framing are both very good as well. I really like the angle that you caught the polar bear at lol. Thanks for sharing and have a great weekend :)

Like your b/w and edit to show the fun and happy details of this big bear. Very well composed, framed and focused. The dark background works.

Adorable photo of this polar bear enjoying the water and ice. I like to see animals in the zoo looking like they are enjoying themselves and he certainly does. Very nice focus and lighting. Well done my friend.

What a great capture Lori. This is perfect to be converted into black and white. It takes all those yellow and dirty tones that polar bears normally have and really mke his very pristine and attractive.

Then with the ice in the water, I guess they must throw in chucks of ice for them?

Nice shooting and nice post processing :)
