Weekly Photo Challenge: Fleeting Moment
Fleeting.
Defined as passing swiftly. That often describes the scene before me captured in many of my photographs. Be it the fleeting instance of the perfect light, or the interaction of wildlife, there but gone in an instant.

In the immortal words of Ferris Bueller, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop to look around once in a while, you could miss it.”
NOTE. I’m off to Acadia National Park until mid week. Any and all comments will be replied to when I return.

A precious fleeting moment when a Momma bear soothes her baby bear.
Sweet …!!!!

As long as she was attending to the cubs and not eating the photographer it was a sweet moment indeed!

Photography is mostly about the fleeting, and well demonstrated here. Enjoy the trip, Jeff. Looking forward to see what you bring back.

It sure was. The terror and the excitement of being that close was a real adrenaline boost that’s for sure.
