I dreamed about this picture since 2012. Everywhere I was in Nordic and polar places of our Planet, I always missed the opportunity to photograph some Arctic fox in white fur. This is why I couldn’t find better title for this picture, because Arctic Fox was really becoming for me, like a ghost ... Until this meeting in winter in Svalbard, when it appears on a perfect snowy day, on immaculate snow, in its majestic white fur, looking at me for few seconds. Temperatures were -40° Celsius. It was feeling like a magical moment and gift of nature.

Polish-American, living now in France, professional wildlife photographer and great traveler, multi-awarded in different international photography contests, I am travelling regularly all over the world with my husband, trying to capture the wonders and the beauties, but also the fragility of our Planet.

Each reportage is always beginning by a careful preparation and study of the species to photograph, their behaviors and places to explore. This is when the dream begin
