Moccasins are one of my favorite things to make especially when it's a good traditional smoked brain tanned deerskin. The glass seed beads are new from Japan #makingthings #camilleseaman #shinnecock #beadedmoccasins #beadwork #ifyoudontlikeitdontlook #japaneseseedbeads #moccasins

Just finished making these moccasins. Made them using traditional smoked brain tanned deerskin with vegetable tanned cowhide (for the soles). The beads are antique Venetian glass seed beads (over 100 years old) #moccasins #beadedmoccasins #seedbeads #beadwork #smokedbraintannedhide #venetianglassbeads #shinnecock #camilleseaman #makingthings #red #beautiful

Giant Tabular iceberg wedge shaped. Antarctica this was one of the first icebergs I ever saw back in 2004 #explore #photography #thesea #camilleseaman #ice #iceberg #meltingaway #climatechange

Bjornoya (Bear Island) Located north of Norway this island is an important place for nesting sea birds. It also has many caves that are accessible by zodiac only. I've always enjoyed exploring this location both by Sean and on the land. Just never look up with your mouth open.... ;-) #bjørnøya #norway #seabirds #greatislands #camilleseaman #thesea #photography #explore #arcticbound

Trying Instagram's new app called Layout with images from Svalbard. Where the color is subtle but intense at the same time. #meltingaway #camilleseaman #photography #svalbard #polar #polarbear #ice #iceberg #thesea #snow

Poolypynten Svalbard sometimes the dreamlike light and lack of sound are so soothing and its part of what pulls me to the polar regions over and over again. #photography #camilleseaman #svalbard #climatechange #dreamtime #meltingaway

Driving dogs in Northern Norway. The great white before and behind you as you slide along the snow with the sounds of the dogs breathing and the smell of their farts! #mush #sleddogs #norway #Vikings #snow #camilleseaman #photography

Terminus (where the glacier ends) after spending many years making photographs of icebergs I grew curious about their birth place and the conditions found at the edge of one state of being and the beginning of another. Antarctic Peninsula. #photography #meltingaway #camilleseaman #antarctica #antarcticpeninsula #terminus #climatechange #reflection #ice #glacier

Antarctic skies. Near Port Lockroy Antarctic Peninsula. The sea is vast and can make you feel very small. The mountains rising out of the sea add to that feeling and then above it all is the sky and the domain of clouds which always remind me that we live in the tiniest sliver of altitude on Earth. So small but capable of so much... Both positive and negative. #beautiful #climatechange #clouds #antarctica #portlockroy #camilleseaman #meltingaway #feelingsmall #photography

Breaching Iceberg, East Greenland quite often it happens that I only have opportunity to make just one exposure of a subject. I saw the mouth and pressed my shutter. As our zodiac passed by. One chance and this image became the cover of my book Melting Away. #camilleseaman #photography #ice #iceberg #climatechange #meltingaway #breaching #sublime #beautiful

Grand Pinnacle Iceberg, East Greenland. I stood on deck waiting, freezing as I saw this beef up ahead in the distance. Ship captains don't go out of their way to make an image possible for me. I must be diligent, patient and ready. I was using a Linhof 617 a metal camera unfriendly to use in the freezing temps of Northern East Greenland. The camera got only 4 exposures per roll@of film and I had to make them count. But as we got in range of the iceberg I ran out of film and my frozen fingers struggled to reload the camera. The captain saw me as he stood up on the bridge and took pity on me. He turned the ship to circle the berg giving me the necessary time to load the camera. I will be forever thankful to Captain Hansen for making this image possible. No captain has ever repeated the gesture. #meltingaway #climatechange #magic #eastgreenland #iceberg #ice #pinnacleiceberg #photography #camilleseaman
