Hi guys,

I am leaving for a few days to gain some inspiration in the nature :)

As a side effect, I won't be able to react to any questions till 16th, but please keep posting - I will look at everything once I am back.

What? The CERN team is not going to happy about this. Maybe Rene can cover for you while you're gone. :comp12:

Have a great time!

In the end, I picked the variant "stay alive" instead of "best photo taken right before death". The distance was just about 15m (50 feet).

I had a mirrorless camera in the bag, so once I would have it in hand, it would not make any noise. The problem was:

it was in a bag!
the zip on the bag is loud
if I would like to get it from bag, I would have to bow down (not very good position to stay in control of the situation)


I am still angry at myself I put the camera in the bag about 10 minutes before encounter, after whole day holding it in hand.
The bear was looking in the same direction as I was, strange noise behind his back could cause... end of TBGL support hehe.
