This is just one of a set of stunning images from the life's work of award-winning wildlife photographer Sue Flood. She has spent more than 20 year pursuing of the best wildlife shots - but says the polar regions of the Arctic and Antarctic remain her most special places.

'I fell in love with the Canadian Arctic on my first BBC filming trip there in 1998 and have since enjoyed more than 30 trips to the polar regions – working on documentaries and feature films, guiding private individuals and on expedition ships voyaging to the North Pole and south to the Antarctic Peninsula, Ross and Weddell Seas and sub-Antarctic islands.' I’ve had some great adventures in the polar regions, including camping on the floe edge with Inuit hunters in the Canadian high-Arctic, watching polar bears hunting, diving with leopard seals in the Antarctic, working on Russian icebreakers and sailing across the Drake Passage on a very small yacht. 'I’m passionate about what I do, and I hope that this comes across in my images so that people will be inspired to want to protect the wildlife and ecosystems I’ve been fortunate enough to photograph.'[/SIZE][/COLOR] [IMG]http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2011/04/07/article-1374475-0B84D84300000578-287_964x632.jpg[/IMG] [COLOR="Blue"][SIZE="4"]Sight seeing: A tourist watches Crabeater seals, Weddell Sea, Antarctica[/SIZE][/COLOR] [IMG]http://i54.tinypic.com/2j29hub.gif[/IMG][IMG]http://i54.tinypic.com/2j29hub.gif[/IMG][IMG]http://i54.tinypic.com/2j29hub.gif[/IMG][IMG]http://i54.tinypic.com/2j29hub.gif[/IMG] [SIZE="4"][COLOR="Black"]මේක මට ආපු ඊමෙල් එකක් මම ෆොටොස් ටික ඩවුන්ලොඩ් කරගෙන ඉමෙජ්සැක් එකට අප්ලොඩ් කරලා තමයි මෙතනට දැම්මේ. තෙරෙන භාෂාවකින් කිව්වොත් මම මේක ඊමේල් එකකින් උස්සලා තමයි දැම්මේ. මම නැවතත් කියනවා මේක මට ආපු මේල් එකක් කියලා සමහර විට මේක කොහෙ හරි බ්ලොග් එකක තිබුනද දන්නෙත් නැහැ. ඔන්න මාවනම් අල්ලගන්න එපා හොදද , මම නම් ඉස්සුවෙ නැහැ ඒ බ්ලොග් එකෙන්, සමහර විට මගේ යාළුවගේ යාළුවෙක් ඉස්සුවද කියලා නම් මම හරියට දන්නෙත් නැහැ. කෙහේ තිබුනත්, මොකා ඉස්සුවත්, මේක ඇත්ත වෙන්නත් පුළුවන්, බොරු වෙන්නත් පුළුවන්, මම නම් හරියටම දන්නේ නැහැ ඒ ගැන, හොදයි කියලා හිතුන නිසා ඔයාලටත් බල්ලන්න ත්රෙඩ් එකක් විදියට දැම්මා,. සියළු නම් ගම් මංනන්කල්පිත බව කරුණාවෙන් සලකන්න. විශේෂ ස්තුතිය කම්පියුටර් එක හොයා ගත්තු මහත්තයට, මෙම ජායාරූප වල පෙනී සිටින මහත්ම මහත්මීන්ට සහ සත්තුන්ට, ෆොටොස් ගත්තු මහත්තයට, යාහූ එක හදපු මහත්තයට හෝ සමාගමට, සිංහලෙන් සහ ඉංග්රිසියෙන් කොටන්න පුළුවන් සොෆ්ට්වෙයාර් එක හදපු මහත්තයට හෝ සමාගමට මේ ටික උස්සලා මගේ යාළුවට මේල් කරපු යාළුවට, ඒ මේල් එක මට ෆොර්වඩ් කරපු මගේ යළුවාට, ඉමෙජ්සැක් අයිතිකාර මහත්තයට හෝ සමාගමට, එලකිරි වෙබ් සයිට් එක හදපු මහත්තුරුන්ට, විශේෂයෙන්ම මගේ රෙප් කපන්න, මම ත්රෙඩ් එකක් දානකන්ම බලන් ඉන්න මහත්තයට, මේ ත්රෙඩ් එක බලලා කමෙන්ට් දාන, රෙප් දෙන, බනින, ගොරවන, රවන, ඔරවන මහත්ම මහත්මීන්ට, එකී සහ මෙකී, කී සහ නොකී, පෙර කී සහ පසු කී සියළු දේනා ඇතුළු නන් අයුරින් සහය වූ සැමට.[/COLOR][/SIZE] [/CENTER] [/QUOTE]
