Sunday Safari – The Bear Has Awoken

Mieczyslaw Wasilewski, Polish poster for the movie The bear by Jean-Jacques Annaud, 1989

Gradually coming out of hibernation, everything around and inside me is change.

Looking at all these bears, with their different moods and characters,

I wonder which ones am I going to wear for Spring?
