The relative lack of activity in the news-section of Spitsbergen-Svalbard.com is partly due to the relative lack of relevant news from Spitsbergen (look at it this way: no news are good news!), partly also to the absence of the main author, who is currently as assistant expedition leader on MV Ortelius on what could be called an “Antarctic Odyssey” from Ushuaia to New Zealand. A brief visit to the Antarctic Peninsula was followed by a successful helicopter-Landing on the rarely visited Peter I Island. The passage from there into the Ross Sea took some more time than scheduled due to heavy sea ice, but an intense 4 days brought a wealth of beauty and rich experience. The voyage brought new land not also from a geographic, but also from a photographic perspective: HDR and panorama technics were explored. Results can soon be seen on this website.
By the way, my new book is in print and it can now be ordered 🙂 it is a photo book with the title “Norwegens arktischer Norden (3): Die Bäreninsel und Jan Mayen”, with German text Click here for further details!
