We entered Isfjord just in time. Not much later, others were feeding the fishes on the same route.
Some success on the quest for photographing old stuff at well-known places in new perspectives. A ship on land, a railway track going nowhere. Silent symbols for the fruitless efforts of man to steal nature’s treasures in the arctic. Why not just leave it?

Admittedly, we still wanted to, well, not to steal a treasure, but to take some longed-after memories home with us. Today’s peaceful way to make use of arctic nature treasures. We were lucky, and it worked. A final highlight of a trip that was quite different from what I had in my head before we set off. The weather ruled severely for quite some time. But looking back, in the sunny light of the days that were to follow, it all came together to shape a complete impression of the late summer arctic. A happy Antigua entered Adventfjorden in the evening.
