Hi everybody,
It has come to my attention that Steve K. has birthday today :t3
I do know that Polar Bears are his favourite animals, as they are soooooo dangerous :w3:bg3::Whoa!:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY STEVE HAVE MUCH FUN IN YOUR HIDE OUT THERE IN THE ABOUT :t3
This animal I saw when on assignment in Svalbard. Sent off to nowhere, yes Steve with guide and rifle :w3, never thought to find a Polar Bear, but there he is!!
This chap gave me lots of opportunities while he was searching the whole island in front of the glacier for food. Yep he saw us, but did not came over. I would have loved to have him coming closer, but not the guide :t3
However, camera was with big lens on a rock on my jacket, me freezing my b... off. On the tripod was my second camera with shorter lens. I jumped between both however I wanted to :S3:
Comp wise.... this is what I want the image to look like :bg3:
Processing..... LR usual - Photoshop levels, midtones and some fiddling for the glacier in BG.
Enjoy
