Lightfall on the Shore

Longyearbyen, Svalbard and Jan Mayen

Jagged cliffs plunge toward the Arctic sea, their flanks carved by time and shadow. A sliver of golden light breaks through the clouded gloom, illuminating the rugged striations like a whispered secret. At the base, a solitary lighthouse stands against the vastness—quiet, steadfast, and dwarfed by the monumental geology of the high north.
