Winter in Antarctica.
The photo pretty much describes it. 10 second exposure with each person spelling out a letter with a sparkler.

Scott Base, looking towards the dining area.

Scott Base as seen form out on the Ice Shelf. Observation Hill is in the background. McMurdo Station sits at the Base of Ob Hill on it's right hand side out of the picture.

Shackelton's Hut at Cape Royds at the end of winter.

Dorm Buildings at McMurdo Station. The odd lighting is because of the fog reflecting all the local town lights back down. There are about 75 rooms in each of these buildings.

The full moon about to pass behind Mount Discovery as seen from Black Island in April. This photo was taken a few days before the sun disappeared below the horizon for the winter. The sunlight only just hitting the top half of Mount Discovery.

Looking from the "Our Lady of the Snows" shrine down towards Hut Point.
