Black Bear Photos

We like to go to Yellowstone on vacation, and have also gone up to Alaska for vacation.   While we've seen both Grizzly Bears and Black Bears, it's the Black Bears that have been the ones that have acted the most aggressive towards us, not Grizzly Bears, including one memorable face-to-face encounter in both Alaska and Yellowstone.  Photos 7 and 8 are of the Alaska encounter, while I don't have any good photos of the Yellowstone encounter.  In that one, my hands were shaking too much, so all I have are blurry photos!!!
