Eric, I was grinning before I even opened your post knowing I would be blown away with your Polar Bear images. Wow I was right, you did not disappoint, these are beautiful. The interactions are so special ! Fantastic work !
Hi Eric. Images like these are what drew me to FM. For a number of years as just someone who loved looking at " what could be possible ". Then and now they motivate me to want to be better. Love everything about these, especially the emotion conveyed within. Phenomenal wildlife photography !!!
Can't get much cuter than that! My late husband was terrified of encountering polar bears when he went to Baffin Island to climb & made me promise to never go on a trip to photograph them. So I'll just have to enjoy yours.

Thank you so much Greg. Polar bear moms and cubs have a way to pull at the heartstrings. Glad that came across.

Many thanks John. We were so fortunate to have found these families. Catching and documenting some special moments has and will remain one of my most treasured wildlife experiences.

Glad you can enjoy these and so sorry to hear about your husband. Fortunately, mothers with tiny cubs aren’t much of a threat. I hope one day you do get the opportunity to see and photo polar bears in a safe space. They are quite special.

A delight to view Eric. I wonder what other gems you have hiding in your archives.

Thanks Morris. I’m sure there are a couple hidden in places I’ve forgotten amongst the stuff that should never see the light of day😉
