Walrus(Morse),whales(baleines) and polar bears in the Arctic around Spitzberg

The looming glaciers as seen from our fishing boat
a group of Walruses(Morses) approaches our boat
this big male  approaches the beach
and this huge one is already on the beach
our first Polar Bears seen from the boat
He is trying to find a way
he smells the food we have aboard
he turns around our boat
and faces us aggressively
I ate my baby seal(phoque)but I am still hungry!
We are so beautiful in this mirror!
The baby kisses his mother
who jumps to another iceberg
followed by her baby
Thousands of Guillemots standing on this vertical cliff
standing as if marching on the narrow platform
we passed icebergs sculptured by the ocean
a bearded seal(phoque) rests on the ice
A Humpback whale dives under our boat
and displays her tail as a good bye to us

  2. Bravo papa! Les couleurs des icebergs est fabuleux et la dernière photo de la mouette et la queue de la baleine démontre un grand timing!
