This is the essence of an encounter in the icy waters of Greenland. The focal point is an iceberg of awe-inspiring proportions, standing as a silent sentinel of time. Its towering presence dwarfs the senses, evoking a profound sense of humility and wonder. Contrasting against it, a small sailing boat. This vessel seems almost incongruous, an audacious interloper in the land of giants. It symbolizes human aspiration and courage, navigating the frigid unknown. The juxtaposition of the colossal iceberg and the diminutive boat creates a visual dialogue between nature's grandeur and human ambition.

As a self-taught photographer and avid traveler, I embarked on a mission to utilize my photography to support charitable causes. Joining the board of directors for The Forgotten International in 2019, I sought to leverage my skills to raise funds for those in need. Through the sale of books and prints, I aimed to shed light on the struggles faced by communities in developing countries and contribute to meaningful projects. Through my photography, I strive to inspire others, evoke emotions, and make a positive impact on the world around me.
