Greenland Fine Art Photography Prints
All three Greenland images in this collection were photographed in Scoresby Sund, on the country's east coast — one of the deepest and most remote fjord systems on Earth. It is a difficult place to reach: no scheduled flights into the region, no settlements of any size, and small vessel expeditions operate within a short season. What the effort produces is a landscape scale that compresses human perspective down to something close to abstract — sandstone cliffs, ancient icebergs calved from the Greenland ice sheet, and the occasional polar bear moving across terrain that belongs entirely to the ice. All three images have been featured in Canadian Photography (CAPA) Magazine; King of Ice was the cover.
King of Ice
One of the most remote fjord systems on earth, where polar bears are hunted by local communities and rarely show themselves. On our first zodiac outing from the expedition vessel, in the fading evening light, this bear rolled lazily atop its perch — completely unbothered, completely sovereign. We never saw another on the rest of our expedition.
Fire and Ice
At sunset, the last light caught the red sandstone cliffs and threw a deep amber glow across the sea. The wake of our expedition vessel carved a path of rippled gold leading straight to that arched iceberg in the distance. Fire reflected in ice.
The Ice Mirror
East coast of Greenland is home to some of the largest icebergs outside Antarctica. On our expedition through this remote fjord system, we encountered several of extraordinary scale. What makes this image is the reflection — not on open water, but on thin sheets of floating ice. Black and white was a deliberate choice: stripping the colour away forces the eye to reckon with the scale.
