EYE to EYE with a cute killer - Wildlife photography in Svalbard

I had to travel 2000 kilometer to get my dream photo.
Svalbard is a remote island, half way from Norway to the north pole.
This is a stunning place with exciting wildlife and birds.
So I finally got to get back to Svalbard for some wildlife photography in the winter. We looked for arctic fox, reindeer and ptarmigan.
You have to watch to see if we saw something :)

Hello Trond, what a wonderful encounter with a fox! I am happy for you! And I'd never saw a seal like this. What a beauty! Great shots btw! Thank you for this great video! Greetings from Austria

Winter was pretty harsh this year on Svalbard with many sea ice in the fjord. That was twenty years ago! Great experience again.

This was another excellent photo trip, Trond. I wonder if you have ever contemplated a trip photograph birds in Beligze?

[@trondwestby5264]

Thank you so much! Not a plan yet...but who knows, maybe some day :)

[@phototheka]

Great, perfect Photography

[@trondwestby5264]

Thank you so much for your compliment.

[@P.I._Mann]

I’m all but speechless but one word: wow, re: the fox.

[@philclancaster]

Another beautiful video. Thank you for sharing your wildlife experiences.

[@trondwestby5264]

Thank you so much!

[@zenphotojourney]

I'm so glad you got to photograph the fox! All of these photos are beautiful!
Was the fox wearing a radio collar?

[@trondwestby5264]

Thank you! Not anymore.....but it had

[@zenphotojourney]

@trondwestby5264 I'm glad it's not wearing one anymore. I understand the need to use them for research, but it looks like it may have been irritating the fox. The fur on its neck was discolored.

[@angelaknight903]

Perfect light thank-you

[@trondwestby5264]

Thank you!

[@richardfink7666]

The seal is the prettier photo. P.S.: no polar bears?

[@trondwestby5264]

Thank you! We did not see polar bears unfortunally

[@stephanandersen7643]

Super flotte polar ræv billeder

[@trondwestby5264]

Tusen takk!

[@mobelue]

Hey. Looking good! Dropped a few pounds! Love your vids!!

[@trondwestby5264]

Thank you so much! :) I am glad.

[@SummitForWellness]

When you're in a moment like you were with the fox and you have a prime on like the 600, what do you do if the animal gets too close and takes up too much of the frame?

[@trondwestby5264]

Enjoying the moment :)

[@brendanhart1065]

Where are your polar bear photos

[@trondwestby5264]

Not on my camera 😂

[@moumitasaha9341]

[@uaebifvideo5472]

[@trondwestby5264]
