I posted this last spring in the wildlife gallery. Mama black bear and cub were strolling down the forest in the Smoky Mountain National Park.

Canon 5d III, EF 70-200 F/2.8 II @ 200 mm
1/350s, F/2.8, ISO 3200

Cheers,

Hisham.

Perfect for the WC,  I imagine getting a clear shot at two animals isn't that easy in this habitat.  Well done!

These guys (well, probably their grandparents) made me walk miles out of my way to get around them when they wouldn't surrender the trail to me. A sweet shot, and nice fit to this week's theme.

A fine catch, Hisham, with good focus on mom and cub in a lovely spring setting.  Mom is sure giving you "the eye".

I really like the composition and the low angle on this one, Hisham.  Well done.
