The area around Qaqortoq has been inhabited since prehistoric times. Beginning with the Saqqaq culture roughly 4,300 years ago, the area has had a continuous human presence. The present-day town was founded in 1775 by a Dano-Norwegian trader and it remains a thriving port surrounded by colorful wooden houses. All photos taken with the Nikon Z6 and 14-30mm f/4 or 24-200mm f/4-6.3 lens. Processed using Photoshop CC and either Nik Collection’s Color or Silver Efex Pro.
