I am not only in love with wildlife photography, but also a sailor. So I decided to make an expedition of a lifetime and sail to Antarctica on a small sailing boat with a small crew. This adventure gave me a chance to stay close to nature and explore its beauty at full. Seeing and photographing a sea leopard was a long dream of mine. I found this one relaxing on a piece of ice just near Ukrainian Research Station in Antarctica. It was posing, demonstrating its beauty and power.
