Magical Dawn

Pleneau Island and Bay, Antarctica — August 29th, 2010

On one of our last days in Antarctica, we woke up at 5am and made an early morning landing on the cold shore of Pleneau Island. The light as the low sunlight burned off fog and clouds was pure magic. I feel that morning was the richest opportunity for photography during the whole expedition, and almost every shot has an eerily spectacular sky. (photo taken in December 2009)
