Leviathan on the Icy Shores

in Photography Lovers3 years ago (edited)

This weekend I planned to get some warm shots of the North Sea, taking into account the coming spring. If I'm lucky even some sun rays on the surface of this gloomy "guy". But the weather here likes to joke.

On the way to the coast, heavy gray clouds of a monotonous color covered the weak spring sun above my head, and it seemed to me that I had fallen into January again. It was a snowfall worthy of the harshest winter month. As if winter waved the hem of her white dress before leaving, bringing down on our heads the snow that she had not had time to scatter on the ground before.

Anyway, if you are moving forward, then keep moving, who knows what awaits you ahead. Even if it's not what you expected, don't miss the chance and give up.

And here I'm standing on the edge of the world, and my gaze goes to the north, towards the Arctic. Somewhere out there people are trying to consolidate their outposts, like hundreds of years ago all over the earth. Polar bears are preparing to fall into spring fever. Huge icebergs begin to leave their parents' house and go on a trip to the southern waters.

Your first photos show a beautiful place untouched by the careless hand of man. For sure it would be harsh conditions to live there for one unaccustomed to the extreme cold.

Does the stone pyramids mean something? I wondered about the significant of this whole group of them. In far northern Canada, the stacked stones used by the Inuit people are called inukshuks (i-nook-shook) and traditional used as directional markers in the vast landscape. They may also mark sacred places or for a hunting ground.

Yes, that makes sense.

Wow,, Awesome shot and a beautiful place to look at but not to live in

An extraordinary life, always faced with extreme weather and accompanied by a bonfire every night :)

I'll admit to feeling cold looking at your pictures but they are lovely. There's a certain beauty in the starkness of this landscape though; I imagine a person would feel small in this environment also.

It's beautiful and I would love to experience it for myself one day. I have a beanie and mittens. 🙃
