At the weather station
Old boat on trailer by modern satellite dishes, weather station, Ittoqqortoormiit, Scoresby Sund, East Greenland. The weather station serves a large area of Eastern Greenland with an automatic ground-based station providing hourly reports, and balloon borne radiosoundings every 12 hours measuring vertical profile of temperature, pressure, humidity and wind speeds.

on September 14, 2020I like the comp; it makes the satellite appear every bit attached to the old, rustic boat!

on September 14, 2020I love the way you approach a photographic subject because each one tells us a story. It's the essence of a great photographer, at least an experienced one.

on September 14, 2020I know you previously mentioned the weather station, but somehow seeing the satellite dishes and all the modern technology, seems paradoxical somehow for this village with its sled dog culture. Shows what I know!
