I really enjoy the bluish silver look to this. Is that bear really up thar?

Thanks for the comments. Yep - the little bear really was up in the tree -- and climbing all over it.

The bluish color of the grass in the foreground is the result of a controlled burn that the Park Service had done in the field weeks earlier. Many of the meadow areas in Yosemite Valley were backish/bluish/charred looking when I was there this time.

Really - great shot - love the differences in contrast between the bears and the leaf color - astounded by how well the black bear can climb trees at their size.
