The photo was taken in July on the White Sea during the environmental expedition to the Arctic circle. Time - about seven o'clock in the morning. The air temperature is close to 10 degrees Celsius. North wind, and just a few minutes the sun came out. Even accustomed to cold seals do not come ashore. Only the most courageous members of our expedition (among them, a scientist-biologist, mother of two lovely children) sailing on a small island in the St. Petersburg branch of the University, for exploring with fellow scientists.
