Just got back from a great expedition to #svalbard, #northpole. The weather was difficult, but in any situation - whether hiking in snow or going on a wet zodiak to search for the white bear, my #shimoda proved to be a great resilient backpack, which kept my cameras and lenses safe and dry. Thank you #cameracity_israel for advising me to buy one 🙏🙏🙏

Not a bad day. May has been a bit odd this year, you can still find full winter a short drive and one valley over. The pack has been well exercised in shifting weather and breezy conditions. #svalbard #alaskanhusky #olddogsofinstagram #greenlanddog

Splash • Curiosamente, dado que pasan la mayor parte de su vida en el hielo marino del Ártico y dependen del océano para su alimentación y hábitat, los osos polares son la única especie de oso que se considera mamífero marino. En la imagen vemos a este plantígrado tirándose al agua en busca de focas 🐻‍❄️ • Interestingly, because they spend most of their lives on Arctic sea ice and depend on the ocean for food and habitat, polar bears are the only bear species that is considered a marine mammal.

We’re taking cold water swimming to new depths this summer! Our arctic adventures on board Valiente promise exhilarating sailing, epic wildlife watching, and explorations of the most remote regions on the planet. There really is no better way to experience Svalbard than by boat, travelling with a dedicated guide, sailing sustainably using the power of the wind, and exploring the furthest corners of this fragile landscape. *No polar plunge necessary to join! Is this on your travel wish list? #sailingadventure #seaexperience #sustainabletravel #svalbard #coldwatertherapy #coldwaterswimming

Svalbard - Barents discovered it then hundreds of years of wildlife slaughtering followed. <10 bowhead whales survived today. Now polar bears and walruses are trying to survive shrinking sea ice. Luckily 2024 is a big year that sea ice recovered. The Svalbard dogs (mostly huskies and mixed) are such social creatures. Pooping while running is their routine:) #svalbard

Thank you to all who came to my talk yesterday. It was wonderful to have such a full and friendly live audience. Aside from the photo presentation, we enjoyed arctic bars, home-baked bladkrans and many had fun stamping their own polar bears onto the 'right of way' sign - our addition to "Whose gallery is it anyway", currently running at @edinburghprintmakers. This was just touching on the question of human intrusion into wild places, pushing out those creatures who were naturally built to live there. Also discussed was the dilemma of gratitude for being somewhere so extraordinary versus guilt for adding to the problem by being there. I find climate change is noticeable in the fierce "monsoon" downpours we've been having here in in Scotland over the last few years and it's felt more immediately in the polar regions. My sincere thanks go to @spitsbergenartistscenter for this unforgettable residency experience and to the staff at EP for the opportunity to use their facilities to give something back to the community in the form of this artist/travel talk. #artistresidency #artisttalk #awarenessraising #climatechange #polarregions #svalbard #spitsbergenartistscenter #traveltalk #whosegalleryisitanyway #edinburghprintmakers #printmakerabroad #polarbearstamping #polarbear #savethepolarbears #notjustforsouveniers #articexperience #giveback #community

❄️ A R C T I Q U E • Ice Cave • Les grottes de glace sont des merveilles naturelles spectaculaires, formées par les mouvements constants des glaciers. Ces cavernes éblouissantes, aux teintes de bleu et de blanc, offrent un aperçu fascinant des processus glaciaires. Ces grottes se forment lorsque l’eau de fonte s’écoule à travers et sous les glaciers, créant des tunnels et des cavités. Au fil du temps, ces passages se transforment en grottes de glace scintillantes, souvent ornées de formations de glace délicates. Ces formations nous rappellent également l’importance de comprendre et de protéger les environnements glaciaires face aux effets du changement climatique. #SeaCoNaturalPhenomena 🧊 — ❄️ A R C T I C • Pancake Ice • Ice caves are spectacular natural wonders, formed by the constant movement of glaciers. These dazzling caverns, with their shades of blue and white, offer a fascinating glimpse into glacial processes. These caves are created when meltwater flows through and beneath glaciers, carving out tunnels and cavities. Over time, these passages transform into shimmering ice caves, often adorned with delicate ice formations. These formations also remind us of the importance of understanding and protecting glacial environments in the face of climate change. #SeaCoNaturalPhenomena 🧊 #SeaCo #icecaves #phenomena #polarsciences #svalbard #climatechange #sciences #arctic #naturalbeauty

Sunbathing This encounter was definitely some last-day-luck for me. I’m flying home from Svalbard tomorrow and went out to look for foxes one last time on the outskirts of Longyearbyen, and up at the top of the mountain some movement caught my eye. It was this male arctic fox, who then found a place to rest and curled up for a nap. This gave me the opportunity to try and approach him, so I hiked up the mountainside. He wasn’t at all concerned about my presence and I was able to get within a few of metres of him, allowing for some close portraits using my @canonuk 500mm f/4 prime lens. I watched him for a while before he decided nap time was over and went on his way. • #wildlife #svalbard #norway #arctic #nature #naturephotography #photography #photographersofinstagram #naturephoto #wildlifephoto #photo #photograph #appicoftheweek #canon #canoncamera #canonphotographer #canonuk #wildlifephotography #arcticphotography #longyearbyen #northernnorway #scandinavia #nordic #nordicnature #arcticnature #svalbardwildlife #spitsbergen #norwaynature #visitsvalbard @visitsvalbard #fox

One of the jobs on board is to climb the mast to find sailing routes around drifting ice and mountains with good snow. Its sort of meditative, and here you can reflect while looking out for ice, wildlife, and have the most beautiful views.. 📸@paulslifeadventure . . . @fubukiboots @oceansherpaexpeditions @backyardsvalbard @visitsvalbard @visitnorway #svalbard #sailing #skiandsail #spitsbergen #norway #travel #ski #climb #meditation #midnightsun

How many lenses should you take with you when heading out? As many as you can carry is the answer. Having ridden on snowmobiles across the island of Spitsbergen for iceberg photography far out on the frozen sea ice with #stuartthomsonfoto at sunset, we suddenly came across a wandering male polar bear (Ursus maritimus). Without a proper long lens at hand, we would have had to pass up on this unique photo opportunity in amazing light. #nikonwildlifephotography #nikonz9 #wildlifephotography #wildplanet #bearsmart #polarbear #eisbär #isbjørn #ourspolaire #ursusmaritimus #bear #bears #wildtiere #wildtierfotografie #isfjorden #svalbard #spitzbergen #spitsbergen #nordaustlandet #packice #arcticwildlife #conservation #naturephotography #polarbearsofinstagram #stuartthomsonfoto

Svalbard May 2024 The people. The place. The experience. Few things can come close. What a week it’s been. I’m still processing this one - both in Lightroom and in my head - and will share more soon. Just trying to hold on to the Arctic feeling a little while longer while I try get my sleep patterns back to normal. For now, a quick selection of images from a wonderful week in the high Arctic with a very special group of people. And a traveling guinea pig. Oh, and yes, I have confirmed dates for 2025 so let me know if you’re keen to join the waitlist. Will be opening bookings in the best two weeks! Stay safe. And don’t forget to be awesome.

Svalbard Photo Expeditions With towering snowcapped mountains, forbidding glaciers, flower-studded tundra & towering fjords, it is here where the formidable Polar Bear reigns as the apex predator and we hope to capture these white bears on the drifting ice sprinkled across the ocean. Svalbard is considered the best place on earth for photographing Polar Bears but a treasure trove of photographic highlights await that includes the Arctic Fox, Walrus, Bearded & Ringed Seals, Belugas, Orcas, Narwhal, Bowhead Humpback, Fin & Blue Whales, Puffins, Guillemots and Reindeer. Four different variations of Svalbard Photo Tours are available, each one catered for a specific season that highlights the splendours found here. The Winter photo expeditions are in March and April, when the lighting conditions are quite simply magical. Soft, pastel shades of orange, pink and blue bathe the landscape in an otherworldly light that that is indescribable! The Ice Lover photo expeditions are at the start of summer in the arctic, before the drift ice retreats and offers photo opportunities to capture this remote wilderness frosted with snow. The Classic photo expeditions are considered the best time to embark on a Svalbard tour as the ice has sufficiently melted to navigate around the archipelago. As it would over the summer in the arctic, the midnight sun will offer ample light and offers more time to capture wildlife & topography. The Autumn Light photo expeditions are in September, when summer starts to dissipate and soft lighting returns to the island. The areas of melted ice may offer the chance to see some of the lesser-visited sections of Svalbard, with waterfalls and glacier fronts. Zodiac trips will be incorporated to get closer to wildlife, the ice and glaciers as we explore this unforgettable destination when it is completely devoid of humans.

Ice waterfall, Svalbard | Paul Nicklen Arctic waterfalls sprout from the Nordaustlandet ice cap as it gushes high volumes of meltwater – a striking reminder of this icy ecosystem's fragility. Even though this image was taken just 600 miles from the North Pole, the temperature hovered in the high 60's (ºF). Thanks to climate change, the Arctic could be completely devoid of sea ice during the summer months within the next 10 to 20 years. #fineartoslo #photo #fineartphoto #fineartfoto #utstilling #paulnicklen #svalbard @paulnicklen
