“Cash only. The ATM is in the red building on the left before you reach the church - hurry!”
10 minutes later and very out of breath we were suiting up into coveralls. We’d convinced the boat driver to do one last trip - the winds were picking up, fast.
Rain whipped at our faces. We laughed at each others attempts to hold onto the boat as we battled the winds into the fjord.
The white sentinels grew larger until at last the engines were cut. Here, the winds were still. The water calm. The icebergs a symphony of dripping. This ice was 50,000 years old finally returning to the sea. Photographing something of this scale felt impossible. How do you capture such a profound landscape? How do you educate others about the silent warning these icebergs serve? That our planet is fragile. That ice is solid liquid gold.
