Description
Are you passionate about capturing the beauty of the wild, eager to elevate your photography skills amidst Earth’s most awe-inspiring landscapes? Seize this chance to journey alongside renowned photographer Christian Nørgaard, who will be your Special Lecturer and mentor throughout this Svalbard expedition. The diverse landscapes, shimmering glaciers, and majestic wildlife – from the massive walrus and swift Arctic fox to the mighty polar bear – transform Svalbard into a photographer’s paradise.
As the tundra shifts to warm autumn colours and the sun begins to set once again, we are treated to stunning sunsets and soft light, ideal for photography.
In the middle of September, we set out into the untamed wilderness of Svalbard. With 10 nights on board, you’ll have countless extraordinary photo opportunities. Zodiac excursions in the soft autumn light bring you up close to Svalbard’s incredible landscapes, while onshore hikes invite you to capture its essence from every angle.
The Arctic foxes have begun changing into their beautiful white winter coats, and the Svalbard reindeer are photogenic with their full-grown antlers.
The ice has receded, allowing for exploration further east. We also have excellent opportunities to reach Bråsvellbreen, a magnificent glacier front stretching 45 kilometers. By this time of year, the first snow may have fallen, beautifully dusting the mountain peaks and the landscapes.
