If you can,please go to the site,register, and vote under the Alaska catagory(where the pic was taken)
it's the Bear.
She's a good kid from a lower middle-class DEM family...it would be great if she won.
Thanks in advance

3. The bear with the fish in his mouth?
It looks professional, I voted, but it gave me an error message. I will go back and vote again.

5. and the paper editor's note
http://www.thedailylight.com/articles/2011/01/23/opinion/doc4d3bbdc1b4e16711621141.txt


"Seeing Lisa’s photo, all I can say is I’m very proud of her and she has my vote in the National Park Foundation’s photo contest. I also told her I’d put something in the paper to let everyone know one of our own residents has been selected as a finalist in a national contest and see if we can help generate a few more votes for her photo.

By the way, her photo is titled “Caught in the Cookie.” Her family was visiting Katmai National Park, watching the bears fishing in the river. She had her camera at the ready and captured the image just after the bear had snagged the fish and nearly engulfed it in a single bite.

How cool would it be if Lisa’s photo won America’s national parks photo contest?"
