Winner, rising star portfolio award. Cool time, from land time for sea bears, by Martin Gregus, Canada/Slovakia. Gregus shows polar bears in a different light as they come ashore in summer. On a hot day, two female bears cool off and play. Gregus used a drone to capture this moment. For him, the heart shape symbolises the apparent sibling affection between them and “the love we as people owe to the natural world”. He spent three weeks photographing the bears around Hudson Bay. In summer, they live mainly off their fat reserves and, with less pressure to find food, become more sociable. (Photo by Martin Gregus/Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2021)
