Perspective


I call this picture Perspective. When you think you are big...

A few More Photos




Hi Guys,

I finally got off graveyard and was able to go through a few more pictures: Enjoy. THe first picture is of the Lamire Channel..a must. The second photo is of the Orlova at the Melchior Islands. In Drakes passage, the waves were above the deck of the gangway. Gives some perspective to the size of the waves.
The third picture is of the penguin that is looking at me in the about me photo on the left.

Antarctica Post Card


Jan 16: Recieved the post card I sent myself from Port Lockroy Antarctica. I got to hand it to the British to be able to get a post card from 64 degrees south lattitdue all the way up here. Attached is a picture of Port Lockroy. This picture was taken around 2300 (11pm).

Photos

Hi Guys,

Sorry for the delay in posting more pictures. My orginal count of 1600 pictures was a little off. I am actually just shy of 3,250 photos to go through. I am about 1/2 way done and am getting around a 25~30% of good photo to photos taken percentage which is far higher than I orginally thought.

Just learned I can upload my photos to Picassa and link it to my blog. Look for that in the future once I go through my photos.

Odd Iceberg



I took a picture of this Iceberg as we approched the South Shetland Islands. I believe this is what on land is known as a blow hole, but not sure what to call in on an Ice-berg. Bizare but beautiful.

More Photos






This was a beautiful day in Neko Harbor. I attempted to make a black and white type image from 8 pictures stitched together. Note the 100 meter ship in the middle...it looks like a spec.

The next image was from Deception Island, Whalers Bay.

I like to title the last image penguin squawk.
