Greenland: A Montage
Three Weeks Across the Arctic — video and photography highlights
Three weeks in Greenland, from the icebergs of Ilulissat to the frozen fjords of Uummannaq at 70°N. This montage is a distillation — aurora flaring over ancient ice, red sunrises igniting the frozen fjord, sled dogs howling in the dark before the sky opens, and the quiet human warmth that runs through it all.
Shot across Ilulissat, Uummannaq, Qaarsut, and the trails and frozen lakes between them. Temperatures dropped to −44°C wind chill. Flights were cancelled. Plans dissolved and reformed. The aurora appeared on ten of twenty-one nights.
About the Video
Shot on location across three weeks in February and March 2026. The footage spans the Blue, Yellow, and Red-Blue trails around Ilulissat Icefjord, the frozen expanse of Tasersuaq Lake beneath Uummannaq mountain, and the settlements and harbours in between.
Aurora sequences were captured on ten separate nights — from the flight into Ilulissat from Nuuk to the moonlit display over Ilulissat on the final evening. The dogs howled before every major display.
