Discovering a elegant perspective within one of the harshest places on Earth is the relatively easier part. It’s contending with the extreme elements that truly made this such a hard image to capture, but watching this mesmerizing scene unfold right in front of my eyes makes every second of the struggle absolutely worth it.
