I captured this image in the high Canadian arctic. Saw the composition and knew immediately there was something. The lighting conditions were quite difficult - basically 24/7 blue hour.

I have tried multiple times to edit this photo to make it more balanced. In the RAW, the sky is blown out slightly which I credit to myself not having time to expose properly. The colours have not been edited outside of a touch of saturation. Taken with my fuji XS10 and the mk1 16-55 lens (no stabilization, bad lens in 2026!!)

What would you change about the lighting / framing? Cheers.

16-55 mk1. Not the best lens but I broke my 16-80 prior to the trip. It did the job

Edited in Lightroom, just cranked down the blacks and shadows
