Polar Bear Island
A lot of wildlife photography focuses on tight shots that put the animal front and center. On my last trip to Greenland I pushed myself to get a little more creative.
This series of images begins by showing you the polar bear in its natural environment in all of its glory. I’ve now seen polar bears in 3 locations around the world and each is incredibly unique. The geology in Greenland was striking, making you feel like you were looking at the true origins of our planet. Here polar bears thrive living amongst the sea cliffs in the summer months.
Going for a more dynamic image, this was capture from far below as the polar bear peaked around a rock.
Capturing animal tongues is quite frankly hilarious. Even better when it looks like the bear is teasing you!
