Polar Bear
A slightly different take to Petes including our vessel for the trip as well as a glacier in the background,as isolated as these bears are they are easily accessible to anyone with a boat and as Pete said earlier I think we will be seeing a lot more of them!

Nikon D3,200-400 AFS,ISO 1000,F4,Handheld from zodiac.
Many soft images due to low light and boat rocking even with VR.

Like it, the included elements make for a different to the norm image and that helps it stand out.
