Shot from the zodiac as we sped back to our small, but beautiful little ship, as the pack ice was coming in fast and we did not wish to get stuck in her grip. As it was, once on board, it took over 5 hours to break free.

In an ideal world I would have liked more below.

A nice portrait of this iconic creature Steve, clicking on the image brings out the fine detail you captured in the soft light.

Nicely captured with the icy environment. The low perspective from the zodiac works well. As Carol already said, the larger view shows the wonderful detail in the walrus- so much texture!

Like the low angle the Zodiac has given you here.
