Spitsbergen-Svalbard.com and the Ross Sea

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.
