In this stunning, large-format, panoramic photo essay, renowned nature photographer Florian Schulz takes readers on a personal journey to the remote arctic. In contrast to the common perception of the arctic as a "vast nothingness," Schulz's images display an ecosystem of surprising richness that is teeming with life. Following the cycle of a year, To the Arctic showcases a pageant of wildlife oddly captivating forms of muskoxen, waves of migrating caribou, and some of the most extraordinary images ever captured of a mother polar bear and her two cubs.
