I had a sweet up close and personal encounter with this skinny quiet black bear this evening. The bear has such a sweet look about it. I sat with the bear for about 10 minutes until some idiot got out his SUV and walk towards it with his point and shoot. I got out the way quickly as that's too many people in this poor little guys space. When I turned up the bear was so calm eating grass that I was fairly confident (as much as you can be with wild animals) that I could rest my mtn bike down and set up on my tripod about 20 meters (ish at a guess) from him.

All C&C is very welcome.
I am still trying to get more fur detail but its tough in the low light and at a high ISO.
