The Arctic is one of my happy places. It’s environment can be like another world. I had high hopes of encountering, photographing and filming polar bears, it is not however guaranteed you will see them, especially a polar bear on a glazier. Lucky for me and believe it or not, my dream came true.

This photograph was my first polar bear encounter. I couldn’t believe it - timing, setting, light, positioning - it was all picture perfect with the added bonus of a waterfall! The toughest job was me - standing in a small zodiac with waves making it sway and changing weather conditions, it took a prayer, a breath, and a second. I am really happy with the result.
