Greenland is arguably the least green place I’ve ever visited, although it’s certainly not lacking in colour. Houses are painted London bus red, canary yellow and fuschia.
A sea of ice spilling out of the Ilulissat Icefjord, the largest icefjord in the world, is so blindingly clean-looking that it would make my meticulous mother-in-law weep for joy. Then there are the blues: deep midnight in the ocean and electric dragonfly blue where crevasses have formed on the icebergs.
