Creative photographer Craig Blackie told us to go warm-up by the stove but to keep the door open. He did a few shots at around 3 and 4 second exposures. The result tells the story of many magical evenings on the shores of the largest Arctic lake in the world.

Craig Blackie set up the tripod and used the self-timer to get this shot. This is the abandoned cabin featured in our earlier Northern Lights shot. This was a lesson in loneliness like no other. We could not have been more removed from the rest of the world. I would actually stop what I was doing and stare up at the sky on the very rare occasions that a jet flew over. They were so high, you couldn't hear a thing, but just knowing that people still existed was reassuring.
