Grizzlies demand respect — from photographers too.

Ethics first: Let behavior lead your shot list, not the other way around.

Angles & Light

  • Side profiles for texture.
  • Morning light for softer shadows.
  • Avoid glass glare; reposition for clean frames.
  • Include habitat context to tell the story.

Practical Settings

  • Aim for 1/500s or faster if there’s movement.
  • Use exposure compensation if fur blows out in sun.
  • Brace on rails; avoid blocking paths.

Keep distance; let natural behavior lead your shots.
