Polar Bear, CanadaHappy first day of winter. Always my favorite day because starting on the 22nd, the day start getting longer again. This polar bear was photographed back in November of 2010, standing on a sea ice in the Hudson Bay up in northern Manitoba, Canada. Nikon D300 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 290mm) ISO 800, f/8 at 1/640th of a second.
