The thoughts of this picture is climate change and the tough survival in nature. The reflection (mom) had 3 cubs and 2 of them died (one of hunger and one from a male polar bear). A few weeks later i found the mom and the cub. I saw the cub on an iceberg and the mom on a different iceberg hunting for food. I took the picture of the cub from a boat using a 70mm lense an the mom using a zoom of 150mm. I used low ISO settings (100) and 5.6 and 8 aperture. Expore 1-250 and 500sek.
I already had the idea and composed this pictures using Photoshop.
Camera: Canon 5Ds.
Picture taken: Svalbard

Very nice. Reflections grow big in the cold country. The white balance is great as is the composition. I would have blurred the background a little less. Love that harmless little man eating polar bear. Love the floating away theme too.

I feel in absolute love with this image. Hell, if I had the money right now, I would buy a large print to hang up in my new room. The reflection is beautifully edited and the photo is just amazing overall. Very well done!
