Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: clear glass

I took a photo of the view through this "frosted" window two years ago, when I went on my first "bear trip" with friends, Cathy and Terry. I love the way the window in this building (that I can't remember the name of!) has a few of these fancy outlines, leaving the clear glass showing. This time, I made sure I avoided including all the cars in the parking lot! Not sure if I ever posted a similar photo taken from that trip. My friends and I had left Calgary early morning on Wednesday (14 May 2014) and I think it was around 12:15 a.m. midnight (Thursday, 15 May 2014), that they dropped me off at home after two long, wonderful days in the Rocky Mountains, west of the city. Wednesday night was spent in a spotless motel, in a place that had so many Mountain Sheep roaming the streets, lol! Though we were hoping to see at least one Bear, I was happy as can be (as always) to see absolutely anything beautiful : ) Over the two days, we had 7 bear sightings, with three definitely different Black Bears (no Grizzlies), and possibly four. The rest of the sightings were of Bears we had already seen. My friends are good at telling individual bears, often by a certain scar and, of course, the actual location. Many of the bears we see, they have seen before. Basically, it's all about timing, as with any wildlife. A few minutes earlier or later and we would have missed seeing something special. We just happened to be lucky. All wildlife/nature photographers know it's all about timing : )
