    21st August 2023. Seal River, near Churchill, Hudson Bay west coast. Manitoba, Canada.

In the image we can see an adult male polar bear staring at us. We are located on the west coast of Hudson Bay, near Churchill in Canada. We are surrounded by the immense tundra. The tide is low, revealing rocks and sand. It begins to get dark and that's why the warm light reflects on the bear's creamy fur. No drones or camera traps were used to take this photo. The bear was just 20 meters away from us. Stepping on the same ground that he steps on, feeling his direct gaze towards you and seeing your own fragility is priceless. This is what this image tries to convey.
