Home of muskox, the beautiful and powerful arctic creature
Norway, 2020
Description
Dovrefjell-Sunndalsfjella National Park is one of the last homes of muskoxen — a powerful animal, which seems to have entered our times directly from prehistory. Muskoxen adapted perfectly to life in the alpine tundra, and thanks to their long thick fur, they can handle low temperatures. So, I wanted to photograph them in the winter, when the snow covers the park, from the first moment. The reward for several days of snowshoeing was an unforgettable encounter with a group of males. I captured one of them in a wider view of the landscape that is his home. The day after, our trip was unexpectedly interrupted by the impact of the incoming COVID-19 pandemic.
