Terje Koalas is a Norwegian photographer who captured the image of a flock of thousands of white-footed geese flying over the snow-covered ground, the overall winner of the 2021 drone photography. (the main international aerial photography competition) The image, titled ‘Pink-footed Geese Meet Winter,’ was taken in central Norway and showed the geese flying towards Svalbard in the Arctic against a snowy background. The early arrival of birds is most likely linked to climate change.

The photo of the white-footed geese, selected from tens of thousands of images submitted by photographers from 102 different countries, will be displayed along with other top photos in eight categories at the Above Us Only Sky exhibition.

The exhibition will be held from October 23 to December 5 as part of the Siena Awards Festival dedicated to visual arts.

In the spring, thousands of white-footed geese settle in central Norway on their way to their breeding grounds in Svalbard. Probably due to climate change, they arrive earlier every year; For this reason, most of the land and fields where they feed are covered with snow.

Trie Kolas says about the photography of this scene:

Geese tend to use similar routes, So when I was with the drone waiting for them to arrive, photos like this were not far off.
