Photograph of the Month February 2026 – Arctic Fox Snow Storm Dusting

The photograph of the month for February 2026 comes from a prior workshop in northern Iceland to photograph the Arctic Fox in winter. This photograph was also recently featured in the January 2026 edition of Outdoor Photography magazine (my photograph is also on the cover). What I love most about this photograph is the heavy dusting of snow plastered to the fox’s face and fur, and the dramatic feeling of a winter storm and flying snow. This is further accentuated by the angle of the ground the fox is sitting on. All of these elements combine to create a highly evocative photograph that tells the story of the fox in its winter environment. Critically, the fox’s tail is included, which helps give the fox’s entire form a wonderful, pleasing geometric shape. I will be returning to this part of Iceland next month to lead two back-to-back workshops to photograph these amazing foxes. Both workshops are long sold out, but we are now taking bookings for 2027. Please contact me for details.
