A big black bear trying to climb on tree after seeing me (45 feet distance, my closest bear shot in the woods). I stayed and talked to him for about 30, 45 seconds, the time to do my shots and leave quietly. An unforgettable moment... Photo taken near Jasper, Alberta, Canada

Thank you Rick, funniest part was that he was hidding his head behind the tree, time to time, and then looked at me again... I don't see you, you don't see me style
Fantastic capture...Great shot!...love the story
