This stunning image was captured by Kautuk using a drone in July of 2016 near Iglulik. The group of hunters, part of a Piqqusilir­ivvik Inuit Cultural Learning Facility program out of Kangiqtuga­apik (Clyde River), stopped for a quick picture after butchering two walruses they had recently harvested. Noting the high number of photograph­ers currently working out of Kangiqtuga­apik, Kautuk explains the prevalence is possible perhaps, “because the community is pretty small and we had nothing to do: no cell service, limited television growing up and only dial-up Internet until 2005.”
