After his breathtaking, prize-winning photographs of the coast of Greenland in 'Broken Line', photographer Olaf Otto Becker turns his attention to the interior of the island in his new series, 'Above Zero'.

Second only to Antarctica, Greenland has the largest inland ice surfaces in the world. Becker's spectacular portraits of this region are taken during physically strenuous, sometimes life-threatening treks among glacial crevasses and melting ice floes, with a cumbersome large-format camera.
