A week ago I was sitting on the shores of Beechey Island in the center of the Canadian High Arctic. Before us was a South Georgia like scene of activity. Over a hundred Beluga whales, masses of seals and clouds of feeding birds congesting a horseshoe shaped bay. We just sat back and watched.
Beechey was a fantastic last stop on day fifteen of our passage linking Iceland with the tiny Canadian outpost of Resolute. To say the least my time in the far north has been incredible! Enjoy the images!
Dating back over 4000 years kayaking began in Greenland.
Traditional Greenland - Nanortalik settlement, Southern Greenland
Brash and bergs! Kayaking along Greenland's West coast and the Jacobshavn Glacier. Its the worlds most active advancing 24m per day.
Uumannaq - West Greenland
Humpback whale show! East Greenland coast.
Ship reflection. Calm seas in the Davis Straight meant I could shoot this image as slow as I wanted. 1/3 sec @f22 The white specs are blocks of brash ice racing towards the ships bow.
At 11pm we pushed through a dense fog bank and entered into a side arm of Prince Christian Sund a navigable fiord system in Southern Greenland.
