IB Kapitan Khlebnikov in the Ross Sea

Aerial photographs don’t work unless you fly with a good pilot, or you fly yourself. This shot was the result of a cooperative chopper pilot who could imagine what I wanted, late evening light (for summer in Antarctica), and a chance flight for staff at the end of a long day guiding tourists.

Lucky me…
