    To my good friend and great polar bear guide Bruce Inglangasak. With out his efforts I would have never made this polar bear portrait series.

    Ken, I guess this will be the last image until 2011.

    Sid,

    Well this is a pretty good way to go out.

    Truly magnificent, the ultimate Polar Bear pose captured wonderfully. I'll miss them.

    Powerful!
    Sweet light, exposure is spot on. I have enjoyed this series, Sid. I hope these guys will have a chance to survive the coming times and we can enjoy more photos of them in the future. Thank you very much for sharing these with us.

    This pose shows just how large these guys are. Great eye contact Sid. What a sighting.
