Spitsbergen - Chasing the rising sun

#arctic #svalbard #spitsbergen
Spitsbergen, March 2017. Winter is still tough but the sun rises again to lighten up the polar day. The long darkest nights are over and the sky dresses again with its best colors. Of course, when it is not cloudy and snow does not fall down.

To say as sir Conan Doyle, this is the "enchantment" of the Arctic, something You can't forget if you've been there at least once in your life. It is impossible to define this unique attraction but I'm sure this is the reason why humans choose to live in such an hostile environment.

This film is the story of my falling in love with the Arctic.
While experiencing the coldest weather and the most difficult travel conditions, day by day I felt I was captured by the "enchantment". People I met there, the wonderful sled dogs I had, the wildlife I saw and the majestic Nature I experienced are now and for ever part of my memories and myself.

The dream is to go back there again.

Let me thank Stefano Poli and his great staff of "Poli Arctici" for logistics and organization. Without his expertise nothing would have been possible.
