in front of it, right between the legs, and the guy dosent even reach the top of his head to the bears chest!.
(sure, he may have only been 5 ft tall), but impressive Pic!
Think it was a bear taken within 100 miles of Vancouver (pemberton?).
The photo uses to sit on the wall of some outdoor shop here in Vancouver, but cant remember the shops name.
(think you had to walk downstairs, like one of the old "pie cut buildings" you see in Gastown)
Just remember it as a young kid, and always wanted a photo of that.
Good thread, but may have already had one in the past?
Yep i remember that store and photo was ....something? outfitters...... i used to shop there a bit.
