"This aerial image was taken during a Polar expedition in Svalbard, one of the last wilderness frontiers on our planet, a pristine environment, 79 degrees north and less than 1,000km from the North Pole," says Tommasi. "Kayakers were silently paddling past drifting sea ice, and discovering an icy wonderland shared with walruses, seals, whales and seabirds. I was trying to capture in this image a sense of how insignificant us human beings seem to be in this majestic, other-worldly landscape."
