it's always a challenge to spot meter black bears against their

background...

A very nice environmental portrait. It's esthetically pleasing, you have the bear in its element, and you've caught the detail -- which, as you note, can be tricky.

Hi Don, I see you have discovered my photos here on photo.net

you commented on some of my shots on the NG Daily Dozen before.
