YAWN Waking up on the tundra.
YAWN Waking up on the tundra.
Taken in the early morning of Nov. 21, 2006 I caught this polar bear yawning as he had just awakened. I do not usually take a capture divided into halves but due to the tones in the early morning sky and to show the texture and perspective of this vast tundra with the bear for size, I composed in this manner. I have many close up of bears and this was more about the landscape at dawn. Comment appreciated for or against are welcome

  Very nice Emile! Really let's the viewer appreciate how large the area was. Like the contrast of the snow and sky also.

  How lucky you were to have SEEN this scene, let alone to have been able to photograph it. I must might tone down the blues a bit, An extraordinary photo.

  Hi Emile! Nice to be back!! I would have composed this the same way as nothing can be cut out. Great detail in the bear, great colors and vastness. Another unique polar bear image. I hope to catch up in a few days!
