Ice tells the histories and dictates the future of our planet. I am fortunate to witness the beauty of our polar regions before it is too late. From the North Pole to the South Pole, I immerse myself in scenes where sky and ocean blend into whiteness, with no sense of distance or scale — like a story without a beginning or end. As I capture these disappearing landscapes succumbing to the relentless march of climate change, I bid farewell to the magical ice crystals that keep the planet in balance.
