I’m calling this image Peace Tree 2 because I used digital magic to alter it into this final version.
I posted this version several months ago but I thought it needed some more emphasis on the peace sign in the branches so I added a few more.
Here is the original image with no editing.

When I start feeling nostalgic about Yellowstone National Park, I know I can always go back and look at some of my many pictures. They remind me of my great Yellowstone memories. Maybe these bears were out looking for a pic-a-nic basket. 😉
