Fantastic stuff as ever John. Did you go to Spitsbergan by organised tour or organised yourself?

Thanks and Regards
Chris.

Hi guys thanks for the nice comments. I went with an organised group but you can easily do it yourself. If anybody wants info send me an e-mail. Not allowed to advertise companies on the Forum. :toast:

Hi John,

What a beautiful looking animal and a superb image.
The golden coloured setting is really quite special, as is the way the fox is stood on higher ground surveying his territory.
The inquisitive little cub is just the icing on the cake.

Really nice atmospheric image. It would have been a bonus to see both cubs in their entirety.

Lovely, John - Arctic Foxes are a real treat. :toast: When I went up there last year I only saw two and no cubs...

Its a beauty John :toast:

The cubs are great, and the adults coat looks very interesting {i assume they change with the seasons :confused: }.

Hi John,

Great shot showing their environment, and the added cuteness of the cubs.

Good work

Regards
