"The Final Breath"

In western Greenland, an iceberg arches like a frozen cathedral, moments from collapse. Hollowed by time and tide, its fractured surface signals the inevitable - it is already dying. A red sailboat drifts quietly behind, small and indifferent. Each year, thousands of icebergs calve from glaciers like Sermeq Kujalled, one of the fastest in the world and a major driver of sea-level rise. This moment holds quiet tension: beauty on the brink, silence before vanishing. It's a fleeting reminder of nature's grandeur and fragility - and our responsibility to protect what remains before it slips away.
