This was taken at a Bear Farm in Florida. Nikon D850, 150-600 Tamron Lens. This farm has been raising bears for 25 years. The owner actually got into a pond with the bears for a swim. I used a few Daily Textures for my edit.
Disqualification Details
This image has been disqualified for including an image that the photographer did not take that appears as part of the final image. In this case, the grass has been added. A photographer can use an image they have not shot as a texture. However, in this case, the grass was deemed to be used as a feature or element of the final image rather than a texture. Compositing of a bear image and a grass image would have been allowed under the Extended Editing rule set, but both images would have had to have been shot by the photographer within the challenge entry dates.
