Hello NatureScapers...

This is a harp seal pup image made in March in the Magdelan Islands, Quebec. The pack ice of course shifts and moves in the currents, sometimes large sheets coming together producing hills of ice material. The seal pups seem to like hanging out in these areas, probably because of the wind block effect.

I am heading out to Canada for about ten days. Everybody take good care and I can't wait to catch up on all the excellent images when I get back..

Dennis,

This is my new favorite shot of yours. Not only is the pup absolutely adorable, but the colors and the comp are very appealing as well.

Have a great time in Canada!

They have said most of it. I will miss your input but am looking forward to the next round of images. This is awsome. The stacks of ice in the background and the seal make this a great shot for me.

That's a great shot, Dennis. I love the all-white look and the different types of compressed snow/ice fading into the background, nicely showing the seal's environment. Have fun in Canada.
