Greenland

Greenland in Summer

In the summer of 2009 I went to Greenland. After my trip to Franz Josef Land it was the second time for me to reach the arctic region.

And these are the very first pictures I took with a digital camera, a Canon EOS 5D Mark II, I got the camera just in time for this trip. And already on the second day it got a few scratches when I had to escape on a rock to escape the attack of a musk ox.

It was a summer camping trip. Greenland is a perfect country for camping, at least in summer. And it´s a place to really catch the sun. You just need to somewhat like mosquitoes, otherwise the fun will be reduced. The colors you can see are amazing. All the photos here show the original colors. I visited Kangerlussuaq, Sisimiut, Illulissat and places around the Disco Bay, easily accessible locations.
