I'm guessing you set up that night shot with a tripod and slow exposure. Don't mean to turn this into a photography workshop but what did you shoot the night shot with? I have an old SLR Olympus OM-1 35mm but I rarely take it because it doesn't do well with moisture and is a beast to carry. It does take great pics and was thinking you must have used something like that....and told everyone to hold...very...very...still :)

Yes! A tri-pod and my Nikon D3100 set on no flash and a timer to let me get in the picture. I took a Pelican case that seemed to keep things dry yet was easy to open and get a shot of the bear as we were traveling.....Here is a picture of the Orange Pelican case.  Ya! that is a no-bake cheese cake! Yum!

Congratulations! Great photo. I bet you are glad your camera was handy to capture this impressive image. Mine would likely have been packed away with the existing weather conditions at the time.

Thanks! All, Yah! it was a rainy day and got much worse as we paddled across Darkwater and Wicksteed to our eventual camp....we were wet, cold and miserable. Our fire cheered us up.:-)

Excellent! One man. One cheesecake. Life is perfect.

Hey I just opened my Spring Boundary Waters Journal and there on page 71 is my picture of my buddy Dustin and a bear on the William River on our way into Darkwater last spring. Ya Hoo!
