A very cool and foggy start to the day... I was very
concerned about the weather because I had booked a very expensive ($600) 4-hour
boat ride up the Tasermiut Fjord because of its dramatic scenery and high
mountains… I was really depressed for
the first hour of the 4 hour boat cruise
as it was totally socked in with fog...then just like yesterday the fog cleared
and it was absolutely beautiful and the scenery was stunning. The boat cruise up
the Tasermiut Fjord is well known for its spectacular beauty...with its sky-high
mountains reflecting in the still waters of the fjord. We travelled to the
inner ice cap and stepped ashore for a walk on the Sermitsiaq Glacier, a
receding one...the sites were breathtaking! After the weather cleared, I was so
glad I took this ship tour...it was a perfect venue to photograph what
Greenland is all about. Once again, I
took well over 1000 photographs… Before
and after the boat trip, I toured the town of Nanortalik to take life in
Greenland. I loved the wild flowers that seem to blanket the town, just lovely!
Sail in out of Nanortalik we could see
the numerous icebergs and whales swimming alongside of the ship...just when you
think things can’t get better, we had another great day in Greenland. I think I liked this day for photography as
well as any I have experienced… just stunning.
