Hebert Lake...such an easy place to get to...such a wonderful morning sunrise location.
I've shot this lake many times and have many great experiences...but the one that really sticks in my mind was this one summer when I got there early to shoot the sunrise with my Pentax 6x7 outfit. I setup the camera onto the tripod and was busy looking into the "hood" viewfinder, trying to line up the composition when I looked up and roughly 20 feet from me a black bear was busy eating dandelions along the road, not even knowing I was so close. I clapped my hands together, yelled at the bear and it got onto it's hind legs, looked at me for a moment and took off across the road breaking branches as it scaled the hillside.
Just wonder how things would have worked out if I didn't look up from my viewfinder and the bear just kept coming closer, oblivious of me as it ate it's breakfast of dandelions.
