Icy stare: Arctic fox perfectly blends into its background apart from its piercing orange eyes

  • An Arctic fox was caught on camera fixing its intense gaze at a photographer
  • The white-furred animal, spotted in Iceland, perfectly blends into the snow
  • But its piercing orange eyes stand out from the background in the amazing snap

An Arctic fox has been caught on camera staring at a photographer with its piercing orange eyes.

With its white fur coat, the animal perfectly blends into the snowy background apart from its intense gaze.

The moment was captured in the valley of Thorsmork in southern Iceland by Reykjavik-based British photographer Joe Hall.

The 32-year-old said: ‘It was a powerful moment, one which I won’t forget too quickly. The Arctic fox is like a ghost, especially in winter. It moves silently and can rarely be seen.’
