The Mayor - Chilling out in Alaska!

    We decided to call this particular bear The Mayor during our week long stay on the river,mainly because of the way he seemed to run this particular area of the river and with no one challenging him,despite what looked to be a great location.
    Here he had decided it was time for a little me time and proceeded to give us a great 10 mins of relaxing himself in a little pool of water just off the main river flow.

      Great capture of a moment. Really like the low angle. Looks like he may be trying to get some relief from all the mosquitoes.
