Falkland islands, South Georgia and Antarctica 2010.

 In 2010, I went on a trip to The Falklands, South Georgia and Antarctica, This was very much about photography of wildlife, but I also saw the remains of the old whaling stations. Our little ship travelled the route taken by Shackleton in 1916 to rescue his men from Elephant island. He was a hero.
