Black Bears Photo Gallery by Ashley Hockenberry at pbase.com

Black Bears

This gallery is dedicated to Black Bears of Ontario. These are the most beatiful animals of God's creation and my favourite photographic subject. Watching them transports me to another world. Photographing them is a bonus.

Black bear sows with cubs are the only animal I am afraid of in ARkansas. This is another great album Ashley. I worry about you getting in so tight on sows and cubs. Great work as always. Voted

this is quite a collection you have put together over the years, perhaps you are a bear whisperer.

Great gallery, thanks for sharing. I feel blessed everytime I see a Black Bear. The problem is I don't see them often enough.

Amazing gallery. I hope you shot these at a comfortable distance, but it doesn't look that way in many cases. A tribute to your courage.

Ha, love it! We've had a lot of black bears around here too in NJ recently, until they shot most of them in the past two years to protect our darling residents from inconvenience. Vote.

Guest		22-Sep-2007 11:36

Love your bears! Where in Northern Ontario did you take the pictures?

Rich Westfall		01-Sep-2006 18:28
Great gallery, Ashley. Some of those are really works of art. Not sure whether I would have shot them with a camera or run for the hills. Glad you chose the former.

Dante Dimarucot		30-Aug-2006 13:19
Great shots Ashley! I live in a bear country also and been walking the trails but haven't seen one yet. How's the 30D performance? Can you give me some feedback. I'm planning to get one for an upcoming wedding. Thanks

Nestor Derkach		29-Aug-2006 23:47
