These pictures are awesome. Sorry for the belated "prayer" I very much enjoy seeing the walking tours and would love to see as many as possible. When I was in Alaska I managed to see a grizzly mauing on some shrubs from inside a bus but not in person like your black bear. I never saw a moose though.

They won't show up warped because when zoomed all the way out your zoom is technically a "wide angle" and so it will warp images on the outside edges. Buy zooming in just a little you step out of wide-angle mode and in to standard lens. An example would be this one
