  • The time has come for my Antarctica photography expedition! This is video 1 from my trip with Polar Latitudes to Antarctica.
    My Trip to Antarctica: bit.ly/3OfpiYp
    Antarctica is special, and there's no need to even mention that. It's just one of the most impressive, remote, and unbelievable places on earth. For a photographer, it's paradise. And I think most think that photography in Antarctica is mostly about penguins. Sure, there are lots of penguins to photograph in Antarctica. But the peninsula is about so much more than that when it comes to photography and experience. The landscapes are just unreal.
    This first episode from the series documents my journey to Antarctica with Polar Latitudes.

    I remember watching your videos in real time from BA when you were living there. The nostalgic flashback to that here really made me feel the passage of time and all that goes with it. Great video.

    Salute and respect from Ontario, Canada! We have been watching your videos on our TV, but came here on our desktop to subscribe and leave a few comments here and there. Your conducting a photographers' tour with other professional photographers was amazing as is this video! Beautiful movie, photos, and narration.

    I'm thinking of you and your co-travellers "bubbling" in Buenos Aires, and I think of the Antarctica workshop recently led by Adam Gibbs, Nigel Danson, and Alyn Wallace. Mads Peter Iverson was set to co-lead also, but he tested positive in Punta Arenas and had to stay behind. What a bummer! Thankfully, no such drama for your group. I hope this madness slowly gets more under control. I'm not sure it will ever go away, but maybe we'll come to live with it like the flu. Love the story-telling!

    Brendan, a boat can go onto a ship, so you are on a ship not a boat. While you are walking down the corridors, do not put your hands on the wall but use the hand rails. Think about the crew can clean up the handrails much better then wiping down all the walls, it’s about safety & health.
