Description
A young black bear sits in a pine tree on our property and cautiously observes my wife and me as I take pictures of it. We kept a safe distance not far from our house. This optical zoom image was taken in the Lake Country District of the Okanagan Valley in British Columbia, Canada. "Young Black Bear"

Many thanks, Carol~~the bear is still here on our property a lot of the time, coming and going to the large apple orchard across from us!!!

He looks like he's trying to hide behind that skinny little branch, haha! Nice shot!

Nice shot! I agreed with other artists that the framing makes it look like it is an image from TV tube. Very interesting.
Randy Rosenberger
Wow, grandiose close up, Will! Looks like something you might view on Animal Planet, especially with the old tv look to the framing. Great shot Will! voted

Glad to hear that you had room to stay far enough away to be safe and still get such an awesome shot Will.....where was the mama?

Love the way you put the old TV screen frame around the bear... it reminds me of the old nature TV shows. Amazing you could get this close.

Awesome shot Will! the framing looks a bit like an old tv screen and made me remember watching Big Ben on Walt Disney as a young birl!! :D v/f
