Polar Master

Polar Master

Russia, 2017

While traveling aboard an old Russian nuclear ice breaker on an expedition to the Arctic, from the icy distance we spotted this lone figure. He came across the sea ice to intercept our ship, stopping us in our tracks. He layed down in front of the vessel and refused to move, as if determining our worth before entering his domain.

    Walk This Way

    Antarctica

    “I want my images to show animals the way I see them in my head and the way I feel them in my heart. Does my image tell you that the fate of Adelie penguins is inexorably tied to the fate of sea ice? Are you ready to change your habits so that penguins may survive the worst of climate change?”

        Fishing Branch

        Fishing Branch, Canada

        “Last fall, when the leaves turned orange, I sat on the riverbank of the Fishing Branch River in northern Canada, patiently waiting for the special drama that arrives with the return of the salmon. I was rewarded when this grizzly bear walked on edge of the stream in his search for fish as the whole scene was covered by a gentle flurry of snow.”

          Feathered Friends

          Russia

          “The longing to understand our human place in the universe—to feel connected at a deep, primordial level with the natural world surrounding us is what I try to answer with images like this. The scene is simple: A flock of kittiwakes rests from the hardships of Arctic weather on an iceberg in the cold northern reaches of the Barents Sea.”

            Curious Penguin

            Antarctica

            “To find happiness in nature is to discover that we are part of something larger than ourselves. Curious and assertive, Adelie penguins are thought by some as the “little people” of the Antarctic world, reminding us that nature delivers joy to each of us in wonderful and unsuspecting ways.”

              Bear Duet

              Bear Duet

              2019 – British Columbia, Canada

              The thick fog curled in shadowy tendrils rising from the tree tops and settling over the river. In the distance, I could just make out the silhouettes of two brown bears moving steadily through the frigid waters. Here in the heart of British Columbia, grizzlies like this pair seem almost tiny in their massive range of towering pines and sprawling streams. No matter how big or small, there is a place for all of us on this beautiful planet. All we have to do to ensure cohabitation is keep our green and wild spaces thriving.

                Symmetry In Motion

                2015 – Steeple Jason Island

                I stood my ground atop the rocky ridges of Steeple Jason in the Falklands (Islas Malvinas) to capture the tyrannic wingspan of the Black-browed albatross. As one of the giants swooped low and headed straight for my lens, slicing the air like a fighter jet, I finally understood what it meant to belong to the vastness of sea and sky.

                  Strike a Pose

                  Strike A Pose

                  2017 – Russian Arctic

                  She exuded power and an unrivaled confidence with each loping stride across the landscape; the queen of the Arctic. Her long claws fastened her to the ice by her sprawling paws as she left a dusted path of bear prints in the snow. Then she suddenly sat on her haunches with her little ears tuliped forward and her nose lifted curiously towards the overcast sky. It was then I noticed the softness in her features as she drew several long sniffs through her snout and her mouth curved into a gentle smile.

                    Quark Expeditions to the North Pole

                    Twinkle Toes

                    2017 – Russian Arctic

                    There was a surprising gentleness within her eyes that I sought to capture with my lens. Her paws splayed across the snow and the hair on her snout was damp from snuffling through the frozen sea ice in search of seals. Her dark eyes reflected the tired wisdom that only a life spent in the vast Arctic could sow. She knew long, dark winters, eternal summers, and blizzards of swirling white.
