Kayaking in the Southern Ocean, Antarctica - Photo display

My Antarctic season of 08/09 finished exceptionally well. Plagued by foul weather and more snow than the norm through early spring the Antarctic summer took its time to arrive.
When the sun break through so to did the whales. From both ship and kayak I managed to capture this selection of images.

My favourite image of the season! Unreal! 20feet of Minke Whale 30cm under your seat.... Val Lubrick (kayaker pictured screamed every time)

Some days are colder than others. Cold water, cold air = time to paddle!

This is why I earn the big bucks! Sea kayak guiding South Georgia style.
