Just a simple shot of a black bear resting in a tree. This was taken at the Vince Shute Wildlife Sanctuary in Orr, Minnesota. These bears are wild, but food is put out in the forest to attract them to the research center. Nikon D700 with Nikkor 70-200mm (at 130mm) ISO 800, f/2.8 at 1/160th of a second
What is it about bear images that captivate us? Perhaps it is the juxtaposition of a cuddly appearing animal that also can turn in an instant and become a dangerous adversary. We want the soft, reassuring friend whom we can hold in our arms and call our own. Images such as yours today, Sean, permit us to escape into the teddy bear myth that all children love. This specimen is priceless!
