U3AC Photo Forum 2023-24 – Week 22 Michael Morrish in Antarctica

Mike Morrish, U3A Photo Forum, April 2024

Mike spoke about his recent trip to the far south: Buenos Aires – Ushuaia – Antarctic Peninsular – Port Stanley.  Photographic challenges: temperature and cumbersome clothing; choice of seating in the Zodiac dinghy; biosecurity on the Peninsular; snow and judging exposure; uncooperative whales (or failure to anticipate them); conveying the sense of scale; and too many penguins (featured in 13 of the slides he presented).  Despite the challenges he came back with over 1,000 pictures – i-phone used more than DSLR.
