Young reindeer appears to pose for a close-up shot, Spitsbergen, Norway - Jun 2014

A Selfie For Santa... Young Reindeer Poses for Close-Up Shot
Oh deer - this youthful reindeer appears to be taking a selfie for Santa.
Wildlife photographer Paul Goldstein was setting up for a shot of the animals in Spitsbergen, Norway when the inquisitive creatures ambled over for a look.
Initially lying on the ground with a long lens at a sensitive distance from the wild animals, Paul had to freeze when they came within feet.
Then one appeared to actively pose for a close-up self-portrait.
Wimbledon-based guide Paul was leading a trip to find polar bears for London travel company Exodus when he and his group came across the reindeer.
Disembarking from their ice breaker to get a closer view, the tour group snapped away as their leader Paul became a reindeer magnet.
Paul explains: "With any animals it is essential to be quiet, be down wind and be as still as possible.
"These reindeer were just curious initially and as they got closer I switched from a long lens to a tiny one, then just put my head down, hanging onto my camera for 'deer' life and enjoyed what was a very intimate moment.
"They did not rush off, if it had been a bad-tempered male with a big rack it could have cost me deer.
"Spitsbergen is special, I love it in the land of 24 hour daylight, which is why I have been guiding special charters up her for ten years."
Paul says it reminded him of an encounter in Kenya's Masai Mara when a young lion appeared to pose for another's camera. "Remarkably one young male managed to erect the tripod before setting up the shot," he recalls.

Tourists get very close to jaguars, the Pantanal, Brazil - Aug 2011
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Paul Williams/REX (3850674ag)
2nd day filming in the Pantanal and already seen 4 Jaguars. Snails are proving to be more elusive!
Stay In The Boat: Tourists Get Close For Comfort At Cat Fight
These hair-raising pictures show tourists dicing with death as they strayed close to fighting big cats.
Seasoned wildlife photographer Paul Williams was overjoyed to finally find elusive jaguars in their natural habitat: the Brazilian Pantanal, the world's largest tropical wetland area.
But Paul, 34, who works for the BBC Natural History Unit, soon found his joy turn to terror as he watched foolhardy tour boats jostling to see which could get the closest.
He had planned to film the amazing scenes, but was quickly blocked by several tourist boats wanting to get the best view.
Paul explains: "I came across this group of young males on the corner of a river in the northern Pantanal - they appeared to be play-fighting. It wasn't long before a group of tourist boats also spotted the scene but I kept my distance knowing how dangerous jaguar are.
"The tourists went far too close for comfort. These cats have powerful legs and can jump several metres in one bound. In fact their name comes from the native american word yaguar meaning 'he who kills in one leap'.
"At the time we guessed that they were about 5 metres away just of the edge of the bank.
"I was in the Pantanal to film various animals for a TV series. What I really wanted to film and photograph was jaguar - the biggest cat in the Americas and one of the most elusive and difficult to see.
"I couldn't believe my luck when we stumbled across a scene of four jaguar on a bend in the river (we only ever got a shot of 3 in the same frame) - a female and three large, but immature, males. We assumed that they were closely related and this would be a unique opportunity to film and photograph natural behaviour...

Seasoned wildlife photographer Paul Williams was overjoyed to finally find elusive jaguars in their natural habitat: the Brazilian Pantanal, the world's largest tropical wetland area.
But Paul, 34, who works for the BBC Natural History Unit, soon found his joy turn to terror as he watched foolhardy tour boats jostling to see which could get the closest.
He had planned to film the amazing scenes, but was quickly blocked by several tourist boats wanting to get the best view.
Paul explains: "I came across this group of young males on the corner of a river in the northern Pantanal - they appeared to be play-fighting. It wasn't long before a group of tourist boats also spotted the scene but I kept my distance knowing how dangerous jaguar are.
"The tourists went far too close for comfort. These cats have powerful legs and can jump several metres in one bound. In fact their name comes from the native american word yaguar meaning 'he who kills in one leap'.
"At the time we guessed that they were about 5 metres away just of the edge of the bank.
"I was in the Pantanal to film various animals for a TV series. What I really wanted to film and photograph was jaguar - the biggest cat in the Americas and one of the most elusive and difficult to see.
"I couldn't believe my luck when we stumbled across a scene of four jaguar on a bend in the river (we only ever got a shot of 3 in the same frame) - a female and three large, but immature, males. We assumed that they were closely related and this would be a unique opportunity to film and photograph natural behaviour.

Paul Goldstein with "fellow guide, photographer and sometimes friend Mark Carwardine"
Paul Goldstein's Spectacular Spitsbergen
For wildlife photographer Paul Goldstein, a visit to Spitsbergen in Norway is a picture perfect paradise.
And these images taken last month show the otherworldly region in all its glory.
They include pictures of wildlife including polar bears, arctic foxes, walruses, and guillemots flying over the sea.
There are also jaw-dropping captures of sun corona, an optical phenomenon produced by ice crystals creating coloured or white arcs and spots in the sky.
Each year Wimbledon-based Exodus guide Paul leads small pilgrimages to the region on a Russian ice-strengthened ship. Spitsbergen is the largest and only permanently populated island of the Svalbard archipelago.
Speaking of the coronas, he explains: "At almost 80 degrees North in Spitsbergen the sun's corona was marvellously visible to a small band of Arctic holidaymakers as they enjoyed this icy Eden. Coronas appear during eclipses and sometimes with exactly the right amount of light cloud in front of the sun.
"Photographically they are remarkable, turning an already beautiful seascape into maritime nirvana."
Explaining the search for polar bears, Paul says: "Searching for a distant ivory blob on a white canvas is never easy and many years ago I realised that the only way to get this reward was to dedicate a lot of time to it. Fortunately in the land of 24 hour daylight, this is made easier.
"We have no itinerary but if we do find a bear, with our incredibly quiet engines and robust hull we can get reasonably close without affecting them, we are never in a hurry to leave.
"Spitsbergen is magical but it is changing a little. I have seen glaciers shrink as much as a kilometre in the last ten years and also realised the effect on bear...

Speaking of the coronas, he explains: "At almost 80 degrees North in Spitsbergen the sun's corona was marvellously visible to a small band of Arctic holidaymakers as they enjoyed this icy Eden. Coronas appear during eclipses and sometimes with exactly the right amount of light cloud in front of the sun.
"Photographically they are remarkable, turning an already beautiful seascape into maritime nirvana."
Explaining the search for polar bears, Paul says: "Searching for a distant ivory blob on a white canvas is never easy and many years ago I realised that the only way to get this reward was to dedicate a lot of time to it. Fortunately in the land of 24 hour daylight, this is made easier.
"We have no itinerary but if we do find a bear, with our incredibly quiet engines and robust hull we can get reasonably close without affecting them, we are never in a hurry to leave.
"Spitsbergen is magical but it is changing a little. I have seen glaciers shrink as much as a kilometre in the last ten years and also realised the effect on bears some years when there is little ice. This year we got lucky ...

Paul Goldstein's Spectacular Spitsbergen
For wildlife photographer Paul Goldstein, a visit to Spitsbergen in Norway is a picture perfect paradise.
And these images taken last month show the otherworldly region in all its glory.
They include pictures of wildlife including polar bears, arctic foxes, walruses, and guillemots flying over the sea.
There are also jaw-dropping captures of sun corona, an optical phenomenon produced by ice crystals creating coloured or white arcs and spots in the sky.
Each year Wimbledon-based Exodus guide Paul leads small pilgrimages to the region on a Russian ice-strengthened ship. Spitsbergen is the largest and only permanently populated island of the Svalbard archipelago.
