Per

My name is Per and I am a marine biologist who enjoy nature photography as an interactive way of enjoying and appreciating the beautiful nature in which I live. I’m based in Nuuk, Greenland, which supplies me with phenomenal photo opportunities just outside my door. I primarily shoot in Greenland, but am also intrigued by other natural habitats and wildlife around the world. I lived in Maniitsoq for a duration of my early childhood, and since came back to Greenland in 2011 to work on my master thesis in biology. After completing my master I returned to Greenland in 2016 and have lived here since. I Work with nature management and do photography in my spare time. My personal passion lies with wildlife photography, attempting to capture moments with minimal interference on animals in their natural environment. I also practice landscape photography, being inspired by the vast open spaces of the Arctic. Landscape photography is a challenging and fascinating field trying to do justice to the natural scene, whether it’s mountains, glaciers or seascapes. Finally I also work with astrophotography, from capturing stars in nightscapes to the thrill of photographing aurora borealis. Creating photos with aurora never gets boring, as this ever changing phenomenon always creates new opportunities.Read more

Stephen

Hi, I'm Stephen Gollan. I have my own travel blog and photograph and film everywhere I travel to in the world. My goal is not to visit all countries in the world. My goal is to get to know the countries I visit. This often means I visit the same country many times. For me, people, culture and food are an important part of learning a country - besides the country's cities, landscapes and nature. Already on my first trip in Greenland, I found out the country is highly addictive. I know Greenland will be a country I will visit a lot of times before I have found the soul of the country and have seen everything.Read more

Carsten

Welcome to my special blog, here at Guide to Greenland. No doubt Greenland has my heart - and that's where I mostly unfold as a photographer. I feel a strong urge – almost an obligation – to communicate my fantastic Greenland experiences to a broad audience. The natural beauty of Greenland is unmatched in the World but the environment of the Arctic is also extremely vulnerable. I trained as a biologist, completing a PhD in Arctic biology at the University of Copenhagen. I am affiliated with the Greenland Institute of Natural Resources, where I primarily work with Greenland seabirds. I lived in Nuuk from 2002 - 2008, and, although I now live in Copenhagen, I maintain a strong connection to Greenland, where I visit at least three times a year.Through my profession as a researcher in Arctic seabirds I have more than 20 years of field experience in Greenland, visiting some of the most remote and pristine parts of the country. I am an experienced speaker and author of photo books on Greenland, as well as popular and scientific articles. I am also the founder and administrator of Greenland's largest stock photo agency ARC-PIC.COM. I have been recognized in several international photo competitions, including category winner in the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year - the highest position a Dane has yet been awarded in this prestigious competition. I have also been awarded the title of "Danish Nature Photographer” (2011) and am a proud recipient of the Greenland Government’s "Environment and Nature Prize" (2012). I'm also a core member of the Arctic Arts Project - a collaborative of the most celebrated and talented environmental photographers of our day, communicating the effect of climate change in the Arctic. Today, I’m combining photography with my scientific background and my long field experience. I travel to Greenland with my camera to shoot wildlife and to document the traditional Inuit way of life as it unfolds in modern Greenland. From my office in Copenhagen, Denmark, I author text for books and articles and work with layout and decoration using my images.Read more

I find my subjects on trips, in nature and in abstract architectural views.
