Busted 5278

I was heading into Yellowstone NP on the West Entrance road at daybreak one morning when two young grizzlies bounded across the road in front of me. I pulled off, checked the camera settings (it's daybreak and dark), eased out of the car, and quietly stepped toward the opening where I thought they went. I only went a few yards, and there they were. Only took a moment for me to be busted though. You can just make out the topside of the other bear to the left. They gave me 20 seconds before they ambled deeper into the bush and out of sight. Mastercard moment.

 

You can view this Large - it wasn't cropped and holds up pretty well at ISO3200. Also, thank you Canon IS. :-)
