Some images from this summer.

Have just completed my first trip to Churchill now but still got tens of thousands of images to sort through so it's time to get the old stuff through first.

Great set of images! Thanks for posting them.
I look forward to seeing your selections from this year soon.
I tried to vote but for some reason the icon is not there. Maybe later.

Dave

P.S. Came back and the vote icon is now there.
Also, I really like the walrus shots. My favorite is the portrait, #7.

Impressive images, to say the least, Morten! I really enjoy all of them, including the first one since the paw of that bear was clearly visible. But my top picks are #8, 9, 10, 11 and 18.

With all these wonderful images I'm wondering why the first is included. The rest are all excellent Morten

You really put some thought into these in presentation and seeing them is pure pleasure. Love the colors, the POV on several and the comps. Nice job on the isolation of subjects as well as the inclusion of the environment in others. Wonderful post!

Fantastic set of images Morten! I really like the first one; the whiteness of the environment and the bear really draws attention to the bear's black paw. I think it looks very unique.

This was actually my favorite of the trip, my attempt to do something different than just eye candy. It could of course be better: perhaps the bear taking a more interesting path,cleaner snow, some other elements in image too. But in this case it is not desireable (nor legal) to influence the bears behaviour so have to take what I get, maybe get luckier later.

Thanks, I had a great time in Churchill. Was probably lucky with wildlife and light that trip. I'll make a thread from it hopefully soon.
