UPY 2019 Wide Angle - Commended
'Curios bear's cubs'
Mike Korostelev

For this image I used a camera with a remote control. I put the camera in shallow water and waited nearby for the moment. One day a mother bear came close and started fishing. Her 4 cubs 1.5 years old were bored. They started to play with each other and suddenly found a camera under the water and started to explore it.

Judge's comment: I have to be honest and say that the bear shots which have done very well in previous UPY competitions reduced the wow factor which this shot generated. That’s crazy but it’s unfortunate reality.
