A look at the life and work of renowned Nat Geo conservation photographer Paul Nicklen.

bears are black bears, but a few have a recessive gene and end up looking whiteish. It looks like a polar bear walking through the giant old-growth cedar forests of British Columbia [Canadian province above Washington].Nicklen had 80 days in his shooting schedule but only had a few good shooting days available as it rains almost every day here, hence the name

“I started with a 100-400mm, then a 24-70mm, and finally a 16-35mm, and before you know it, I’m zooming out to 16mm to photograph this bear in his environment, and that’s the ultimate. But that was after eight weeks of sitting there waiting, waiting, and waiting. The animal had probably been watching me, smelling me, hearing the clicks of my camera … it’s just not that surprised.

“The polar bear is one animal I have spent the most time with. I’ve seen and photographed polar bears probably a thousand days, like three years of my life.”On Ancient Ice, Svalbard, Norway, 2007Nicklen says he has had a number of scary encounters over his life and career, but only with humans and not with animals.

“I like my work to be layered but have that animal to give the story and the landscape context rather than just straight landscapes.Ice Waterfall says Nicklen. “A polar bear’s image is mirrored against the water surface as it dives below a pan of ice. It’s on Apple TV and Apple computers.“When I do public lectures, people in the audience will judge me. Cristina was in the audience, and some people said it was fake and Photoshopped because they thought there was no way anybody could capture that.
