A bear in the sunset. (Then again, it's pretty much sunset all day long in summer, at 80° latitude). Svalbard, 2009.

Other polar bears from the same trip:

Hi there!

I would definately like to try that kind of a trip! You're lucky!

To the shot:

I guess you used some fat zoom lens, cause being in a short distance with these guys is not really safe

...

The composition is good enough, or I have to say that atleast it's not basic

. I know it's a pain to get a quality photo when youre running out of time, but in this case I would recommend comp. with bear much more on the right. But for sure it's very subjective

.

Colours are amazing in my opinion. The time right before sunset, is the time where colours are comming up, so it was a definately good choice to take it like that

.

I won't comment on the animal, cause it's kinda awesome, and I'm jelaous

.

Good work out there!

Best regards,
Monty.

This is an absolutely fantastic image! I was wondering if I could use it for a poster?
