Jean & Kevin were guests on our imposing [Brown Bears](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/brown-bear/) & Cubs of Finland trip back in July. In this blog post, we showcase Jean’s images. I love seeing the photos that our guests send us at the end of a trip, but I was especially excited to see what Jean & Kevin would send in. They are both accomplished photographers & I couldn’t wait to “look through their eyes”.

I must say that Jean’s photo of “Yogi” in the boat is one of the best photos I have ever seen come out of any of our Finland bears trip. It is unique, the composition is excellent & you can tell that there is a story behind the image.

 

Our trip to photograph Finland’s Bears & Cubs is one of those trips where a variety of lens is useful. For those of you who are interested, “Yogi” in the boat was captured using the Canon EOS R combined with the Canon RF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM lens.

We use the purpose-built 2-person professional photography hides for this tour. In these hides, each photographer can set up two cameras – one for wide-angle & another for tight portraits. Tripods are not required, but you should remember to pack your tripod head.

I thoroughly enjoyed looking through Jean’s eyes & loved the emotions her images evoked. She has a wonderful talent in capturing their personality as well as their behaviour.

 

They say that wildlife photography is 98% luck & I think it is fair to say that Jean is one lucky lady! Just look at this wonderful image that she got of the elusive [wolf](https://natureslens.co.uk/photograph/wolf/)!

Jean said that “photographing bears in [Finland](https://natureslens.co.uk/discover/europe/finland/) was an rewarding experience. Just sitting in a hide overlooking the forest while the call of a raven or eagle echoed across the silence. & then suddenly, a bear comes into view. Just distinctive.”

 

Thanks to Jean for allowing us to share her fabulous images. We look forward to seeing you & Kevin again in October!
