This one of the female polar bear was taken between 7 and 8 in the morning as she wandered around perhaps searching for breakfast. She briefly paused and looked at us through a V formed in the polar ice. All that could be heard was the rapid fire of everyone's shutters on the boat. Unfortunately, I only got off a few frames before one of the other photographers accidently popped up in front of me. Fortunately I got this one before that happened.
