The pressure ridge of sea ice along the coastline outside the Scott base is just an amazing display of nature's ability to show off her sculptures. In turn, it can be said that we have a lot to learn from her. Took a tour with one of the American guides here along with a number of other oz expeditioners. The link below will take you to an album of mine on facebook with all the other shots I took on this trip. All the shots were taken between 9.00pm and 10.30pm. That's the beauty of summer down here, the amount of sunlight. You can't just walk out here by yourself, so you need to organize with the Americans or Kiwis a guide. Bloody dangerous areas so stick to the flagged trail.

Found your blog interesting and particularly enjoyed the photos of the pressure ridge. It must be spectacular viewed in person. Stay warm and keep writing.
