The Melanson family—Peter, 30, Pauline, 34, Joseph, 11, Jacob, 9, and Shane, 6, in the kitchen/dining area of their home. They live one street off “The Road To Nowhere,” on a hill overlooking the town of Iqaluit in Canada’s northeastern territory of Nunavut, just below the Arctic Circle. Iqaluit, with population of 6,000, is the largest community in Nunavut as well as the capital city, is located in the southeast part of Baffin Island. Formerly known as Frobisher Bay, it is at the mouth of the bay of that name, overlooking Koojesse Inlet. "Iqaluit" means 'place of many fish'. The image is part of a collection of images and documentation for Hungry Planet 2, a continuation of work done after publication of the book project Hungry Planet: What the World Eats, by Peter Menzel & Faith D'Aluisio.
