Marking the seventh year of my ongoing Winter Solstice Pinhole Photographs series, the 2023 batch of pinhole images was shot at the Pangnirtung Fjord, on Baffin Island, in Nunavut, Canada.
As I’ve mentioned in previous posts about this series, each year presents a unique set of challenges to executing the photography; this is part of the series’s framework. Getting from A to B in the Canadian Arctic certainly more than qualifies. On top of the usual seasonal darkness and uncertainty of the rudimentary equipment and materials I use, severe cold, limited travel options, stress, and cultural barriers all played a part this year. It was an arduous but unforgettable experience, an outline of which is available on my Instagram feed’s stories highlights under the “2023 WSPH” heading.
But now back in New York, I’ll process the photographs and go through my BTS footage, all of which I’ll post here and on Instagram in the coming weeks and months.
