In the calm waters of Greenland, gigantic icebergs dwarf everything around them. Over the course of hundreds of years, these behemoths have grown into their own unique shape and size.

'Nothing prepares you for the scale of this place and the scale of the ice,' says Michael, of Fort Collins, Colorado.
