Epilog
At Longyearbyen airport now, flight back to Tromsø soon.
We did not have any access to internet the past few days, so I will post a bunch of pictures now.
We had some really nice weather around Ny Ålesund and went to some beautiful, lonely beaches. I also had a close encounter with a magical glacier...
We sailed to the Fram Strait and into the polar ice. It feels like the edge of the world, and quite a contrast.

Ulsan International Photography Festival
Two weeks ago, I was contacted by Mr Jongjean Kang, the curator of the Ulsan International Photography Festival in South Korea. He asked if I wanted to be one of the 15 artist to exhibit at the festival this year. He had seen my pictures on my website - thanks to Camille Seaman, who tipped him about me - and was very excited about my work. Thank you Camille.
Six of my arctic pictures are showing in Ulsan right now and are being used to advertise and announce the exhibition. I like.
