Description
The last ice bear pic, I promise.
Desaturated everything but the bear and its reflection again, because in color it just looked messy... But since I loved the reflection, I didn't want to leave out the photo from my gallery.
(Same bear as in Boredom, btw.)
Zoo in Gelsenkirchen. Alaska area.
Fullview recommended.

glad you like.
(though I'd like the bears in our zoo better, if they were more active. I suppose I'll have to go in winter.

Großartig!
Das Bild find ich klasse... Der schwarz-weiße Hintergrund und der dazu "farbige" Eisbär harmonieren sehr gut!
Und die Spiegelung im Wasser noch dazu...wunderschön!

Danke.
Und ich bin mal wieder überrascht wie viel besser dieses Bild bei den Leuten ankommt als "Walk With Me". Ich mag das Bild viel mehr als dieses hier.
Zeigt mal wieder, wie verschieden Geschmäcker sind.

I still say the bear was nothing but laaaaaazy...
You couldn't have taken pictures of it in motion no matter how long you waited. I mean, I have 4 pics of the same bear and all that changed was how it held its head.
But your interpretation of the photo sounds better!

Dunno, can't remember correctly. I think there were other bears in there, too... Hmm...
I'll try to find out during my next visit. That will be soon, hopefully.
AND I hope to find more active animals then.

One of these days I'll get them... And if I have to wait until winter.

Well, I'm betting they'll get more active as the weather cools down towards winter...
Now that I have an annual ticket I can go an have a look at their activity more often.

Not in the Alaska area.
And in the Africa area they have large warm halls for the animals to spend the winter in.

But instead it was nothing but lazy, I'd say.
I mean, from the "Boredom" pic to this one it was several minutes. And if you compare those photos, the posture of the bear hasn't changed that much, has it?
The only real change was that I changed my position...

Well, I have no problem with that... but I don't know about the zoo officials.
And thanks for the fav!
