"Bearly Hanging On"

 

 

I photographed this black bear in my father's backyard

a couple of years ago. Three grown dogs, three adult people

and my camera kept the trespasser high among the branches

until I was satisfied that I had taken all the photos I wanted.

As you can see his head is resting on one of his back paws.

He looks comfy and awkward at the same time! He seemed

 tired of our company so we called the dogs back and let

him vacate the premises unscathed. I have had this photo

 touched up at Cranbrook Photo and printed onto canvas.
