Ah, now I see why you chose Antarctica. Especially in a world of plastic and trash, its beauty is sublime. Your landscapes of horizontal elements and zigzags make me wish for a print or two.
By the way, some of your captions are a hoot.

Excellent work – [vote!] and thanks for posting. I think presentation would be further improved if the thumbs were not dimmed in the gallery view. :)

A great sense of space and composition. The figure placements in the panorama shots are expuisite. She writes, she teaches, and she makes grand photographs! What next can we expect from this sensitive artist?

Wonderful memories and pictures. You captured our trip beautifully. After the weather we've all experienced since we've returned - rain, snow, ice and cold the Antarctic weather was a breeze.

Jean,

Great pictures! Was the wildlife the highlight of your trip? Reminds me of my inside passage trip to Alaska. The Chicago winter should be a breeze after this trip!
