Black Bear Cub 6_1_11.jpg

This morning we were in the canyon to make use of that old wheelbarrow in a Wanda photo (watch for the photos later). I have to rush off to work; so, I posted the other model for today, a black bear cub. Momma bear was on the other side of the cub in the brush and wasn't a willing model. Of course this isn't Yellowstone and the wise thing to do was to move on before momma got really mad.

Great capture, love the texture of the bark and the little bear clinging on! Hope you kept a wary eye out for mom. V

Aww... the little bear is so cute.

This is a beautiful photo. I love how clear the texture of the bark is.

Is this the same tree you used in the photo where Wanda was superimposed into the tree?
