Icebergs looming in the distance. Waves crashing against an iceberg. Icebergs through a porthole on the deck.
Penguins on a blue iceberg. David enjoying the fresh air and calming seas. Dramatic backlighting of Elephant Island.
Elephant Island, near where Shakelton's crew first set foot on land after 16 months. Adelie penguins dot the landscape of Heroine Island (one of the Danger Islands in the Weddell Sea). A small group of penguins 'porpoising' alongside our boat.
Penguins on ice. Tabular icebergs. When ice has less air trapped inside it becomes clearer.
Closeup of the clear ice. Another tabular iceberg. More tabular icebergs.
