I am off to spend a computerless year in the Arctic based in a cabin photographing all sorts of Arctic things. See you in a year unless I go shacky whacky or get eaten by a bear.

WOW that certainly is different.
How do you plan to photograph things in winter when it is perpetually dark? Presumably you will have to use artificial light. How will you detect what is there to photograph - artificial light presumably has a limited range and it will take a while to find things.
Have a nice time.
