TITLE: Magical setting at the pole...

A young white bear from Manitoba while lazily enjoying a soft snowfall. It is morning in Hudson Bay, Canada, and the bear has just woken up. I succeeded in capturing it at an extreme temperature (-26 °), in a surreal silence, after observing its habits for a few days. The polar bear spends most of its time sleeping and lounging in the snow. It only moves when it's hungry. To hunt its favorite prey – the seal – it is willing to walk hundreds of miles. Its refined nose allows the bear to sneak up on its prey when the seal rises to the surface to breathe.
