Three of my recent taken photographs of Spitsbergen are published in Natura Magazine 2010 No. 6 of Volume 107. The first one is a Barnacle Goose photographed at the slopes of Longyearbyen. The photograph is on the cover of the magazine.
 
The two other photographs relate to the tundra climate in summer on Spitsbergen and Polar Bear research (predation). The photographs are published in the article: 

De Heer K (2010) In de voetsporen van Willem Barentz *, Natura Magazine, No. 6 Volume 107, 174 - 177.
 
* In English: In the footsteps of Willem Barentz
