This is a beautifully printed photographic journey, in both color & black-&-white, through the awe-inspiring landscapes of the frozen continent. Since 1990, wilderness photographer David Neilson has made repeated journeys to Antarctica & the sub-Antarctic, in a quest to capture the exquisite light of these southernmost lands. This oversized volume presents the spectacular results of his efforts: 130 color & 100 duotone plates portray the dramatic topography of the Antarctic Peninsula; the icebound expanses of East Antarctica; the Ross Sea region, which witnessed the heroic age of Antarctic exploration; & the sub-Antarctic islands of South Georgia & Macquarie, with their profusion of wildlife.

The images of wildlife, many of them remarkable close-ups, include emperor, king, Adelie, gentoo, chinstrap, royal & macaroni penguins; wandering, royal & grey-headed albatross; & crabeater & fur seals. Neilson`s photographs are accompanied by a narrative of his Antarctic journeys, essays on conservation & climate change, & five full-page maps. ...
