Artic Fox in the shallow 'well' around an iceberg trapped in the sea ice of the Arctic Ocean (Baffin Bay). A pure gift I thought, that she stopped and looked at me, pausing at the perfect 'horizon' between light and shadow.
That 'line' on the rear left of the photo is a crack in the iceberg. While on this particular 'berg poised atop of it, in fact, two Inuit guides made a mad scramble to get off when there was a resounding 'CRACK' bang as the 'berg cracked. On another (the guides climb up to look for polar bears in the distance) as the guides were climbing down a large 'shoulder' of that 'berg crumbled and slid into a pile of crushed ice. They are not stable beings, icebergs :)
