“Better Moments gave me the perfect opportunity to visit a part of the far north that I had not visited. Christian Nørgaard was constantly focusing on the interest of all the photographers in getting the best locations and situations to shoot. This was my second trip with Better Moments and it is a photographer’s paradise, as you are surrounded by like-minded people; sharing a common interest.
One of the highlights was being in a Zodiac while skirting around some beautiful icebergs and glaciers. The colours of the icebergs are incredibly brilliant and rich. During the shoot, local experts, not only kept us safe, but as they are scientists and experts in everything Arctic, they were enthusiastically explaining the life of glaciers and icebergs. A trip that I will never forget!”
