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…

    Hi Doug
    What a brilliant photo! I love the pattern of the broken ice and the long shadow of the ship.
    Thanks for the information on Laos and Cambodia! Much appreciated.
    Cheers Ant
