Acclaimed naturalist photographer James Balog set off into the Iceland Arctic in 2005 and brought home some revealing images that completely changed his global perspective. As a self-proclaimed skeptic to the world's temperature shift, his expeditionary photographs revealed a climactic change unfolding before his eyes. Balog's time-lapse photography captured a startling difference in polar decline and glacier retreats that propelled the photographer into the most aggressive project of his career.
Chasing Ice explores the rapidly melting ice caps photographed over several years from across the planet. At the projects inception, Balog assembled a team of young adventurers to travel the world and photograph the significant effects of global warming in relation to the stability of glaciers. As word of his project wove through the artistic community, documentary filmmaker Jeff Orlowski, with a string of credits ranging from his short, "Geocaching: For the Web to the Woods," and "The Strange Case," teamed with Balog in capturing the multi-year project.
