Photo by @andyparkinsonphoto / Kamchatka bear close up – It’s been almost a month now since I last posted a close up of one of my favourite bears, it’s old snaggletooth himself, Toothy! This lovely bear came and settled down quite close to where we were sitting quietly and though he could not have posed any better he was to say the least a bit of a fidgety wriggler. He couldn’t quite seem to find the perfect pose in which to relax and so, fortunately for me, he decided to run through a whole range of different poses, all on the same rock and all about 5 feet from where I sat. During my time in Russia I must admit that I developed something of a foot fetish, a passion for paws if you will and I never tired of trying to crowbar them into my images. They were just so magnificent, so compelling that I did become a little obsessed, even fixated on them as they just seemed to anchor so many images, their presence often being the make or break between a mediocre or a strong image. Here, even though the paw does look a little clumsy and awkward Toothy has managed to use it to frame his face quite nicely and whilst I would never actively seek to include drool in my images I can forgive him this momentary salivation. You might think that as he was looking directly at me that he was contemplating the prospect of a different kind of meal, something a little larger and perhaps more substantial. However, underneath the layers of clothing he would have been most disappointed to have found only my spindly chicken legs, cursed as I have been by my defective maternal genes they’d be little more than a toothpick to this mighty bear. Toothy knew better I feel and given the choice between another wet fish or enduring my girlish screams he chose wisely and continued with his Vogue-ish posing. He is indeed a mighty fine bear. If you fancy joining me next July to come and meet Toothy the just hit the link in my bio for the trip-of-a-lifetime! Please #followme at @andyparkinsonphoto
