BEAR!!! - 24th May 2011 - somewhere on the way back to Vancouver, BC

While driving home from a weekend touring wineries with friends in the Okanagan, we noticed a bunch of cars pulled off to the side of the highway.

Curiosity got the better of us, and we quickly joined the large group once we saw the reason.

This guy looked like he'd just woken up and was stretching out on his "front porch".

Amazing to see in the flesh, and slightly humbling to get even the smallest inkling of how powerful and potentially damaging a bear could be if they felt threatened.


Taken with the Nikon D3100/18-200 (@200mm), f5.6 for 1/30sec handheld, ISO 200
