22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
An Invitation to Meditate
During the brief Arctic nights, the serene ambiance created by the lingering descent of the sun evokes a sense of time standing still. The tranquil polar silence deepens the meditative atmosphere, while the sky's smooth gradient, shifting from blue to pink, resembles the soothing hues of a Rothko painting. The reflection in the frigid waters of Disko Bay amplifies the tranquility, turning the scene into a quiet, dreamlike reverie.
