TITLE: Ice on Black – Greenland

This is a personal interpretation of an iceberg in the Disko Bay on the west coast of Greenland, taken from a small fishing boat. I really wanted to bring out the beautiful texture in the ice and make it stand out from the surrounding water and sky and black and white was the best way to achieve that goal.
