The image showcases the beach of Unstad, a haven for extreme surfers who dare to conquer the Arctic waves. As if frozen in time, the scene transports us to March 10,2016, when nature's elements merged with human resilience and passion.

Against a backdrop of snow-capped mountains and icy waters, brave surfers can be seen riding towering waves that crash upon the shore. This snapshot encapsulates both serenity and adrenaline as these athletes embrace their love for extreme sports amidst such an unforgiving environment. Morin's lens captures not only physical prowess but also leisurely joy radiating from those partaking in this extraordinary experience. It serves as a reminder that even in some of Earth's most remote corners, humans find solace and fulfillment through leisure activities that push boundaries.
