Thanks for all your comments.

Yes, I used a flash to paint the inukshuk, the exposure was 13 sec @ 2.8/ 200 ISO, 16mm, Canon 1 Ds Mark 2.

Remember, you are here in downtown polar bear country, just on the edge of Churchill and it is a little strange standing outside when it is "dark" knowing that the next bear could be right behind you...(glad I saw the next bear next morning and not this night).

I have a few more of this series here: pictures of northern lights.

It was a very cold but extreme exciting evening!

Hope you enjoy the picture.

thanks for all your kind words - the image was a lot of very cold work and lots of waiting - so I sure appreciate every comment!.

I just updated my northern light pictures on my website - for all northern light freaks - go check it out, there are some new images online:

more Northern Lights - Aurora borealis pictures

I have been to Peggy's Cove many time but this is one of my favorites.

Beautiful colors and the half moon just topped it up.

Hope you like it too.

It was a very cold early evening at the Hudson Bay in Manitoba.

The biggest challenge was to keep watching for polar bears which hang

out here early November. Actually a day later we photographed a large

male bear on the same "rock pile".

Hope you like the pic.

uppps - yes you are absolute right. Now I'm in trouble, my wife is a Kiwi.

Thanks for telling me!

Wauhhh,

very nicely done!Beautiful composition, perfect balanced, awesome framing too.

One of my favorite. It shows the animal in the landscape of Hudson Bay.

Hope you like it too.

It was very interesting to experience polar bear at the first day of

snow. It was like they exploded with energy.

I photographed this road picture near the Kaikoura Peninsula on the

South Island of New Zealand.

wonder if this polar bear was frustrated with the warm weather... He

had no snow till beginning of November.
