Black Bear Reaching for Salmonberries

Best on black. We had a visitor this morning right around dawn. I had my camera set for maximum ISO of 12800 so I had to increase the exposure lots in editing making for disgusting noise. But I thought it was pretty cute anyway with him reaching up into the salmonberry bush for some breakfast.
Thaks for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs

A shot of a lifetime! Sometimes quality has to take a backseat to getting that photo! Although I think your editing ain't bad.
