From the ship somewhere in the Arctic pack ice North of Svalbard in summer 2025, I noticed a clump of fur sticking out of a wall of ice in the distance. I decided to take to the skies and as I approached, the scene unfolded before my eyes: a polar bear fast asleep, nestled in a crack near a beautiful piece of blue ice. I made sure to stay high enough not to interrupt its sleep. I captured the moment and retreated, leaving behind a happily sleeping bear!
