11.- Arctic Stillness

The winter landscape settles into a condition of restraint where water, snow, and rock approach near immobility. Reflections stabilize the fjord surface while roads, islands, and mountain fronts remain held within subdued atmospheric conditions. Visibility fluctuates subtly through shifting cloud and muted Arctic light without disturbing the underlying stillness of the terrain. The sequence avoids spectacle, focusing instead on duration, balance, and the slowed perception produced by the quiet continuity of the northern landscape.
