Sweet image Sid. Beautiful exposure and the soft blue BG adds a nice touch. It must have been amazing to see these bears in person.

[Rachel Hollander]

Sid - another great image. I agree with Denise's comments.

TFS,

Thanks Denise. Every thing is special in Arctic. Animals, accommodations, people and food. Hoping to make some more trips in future.

This is really beautiful Sid. The composition and the peacefulness of the image which is unusual for the polar bear photos we see. Is the mother moulting?

[Ken Watkins]

There are only two words required to describe this tranquil and beautiful.

You must by now have a good sized collection of incredibly good Polar Bears, but if you have more please post them.

A perfect family portrait here Sid. Great shot!

Nice low angle and I like the position of the bears!

[Stephen Earle]

All has been said. I like the overall feel of this image.

[Robert Amoruso]

Another good one Sid from that trip. I like the supper clean blue BG and the texture of the sand.

[Henrik Nilsson]

Fantastic image, Sid. The slightly OOF foreground helps focus the viewers attention on the bears.

Well done.
