Awesome shot. He looks kind of gentle, but I would have made a wide berth around him.
My wife and I once encountered a bear with a cub by Rimrock Lake, by Mt. St. Helens, and it was a little intimidating.

Way too close for my comfort. Much better looking than a Husky.

I'll second the "awesome," love the way the bush frames the bear.

Fantastic capture. Wish I could do this, but from what I have learned, bears can eat you :frown: tooooo close for me.

Wow! Simon, I hope this was taken with LONG telephoto! What a wonderful shot. Love it. Goin' for the berries, is he? And the way you can see his eye so well is really cool.
