Anthony > Looking north behind McMurdo Station, an aurora hangs in the sky above the dome that houses the NASA satellite ground station on the ridge.
Anthony > Two Pisten Bully vehicles traversing across the Ice Shelf from Black Island back to McMurdo in foggy conditions with an aurora overhead turning the lighting green. Temperatures were approx -55 C out on the ice shelf this day, so I only managed one or two photos before the camera froze.
Anthony > Black Island station at 11.15am in the morning in July.
Anthony > Skua eating a dead penguin.
Anthony > Self-laying track vehicle. 6 hours drive away from McMurdo, 40 below, a storm headed our way in a few hours, and one of the tracks on the vehicle breaks. Events like this are why we always have lots of back-up options available when we travel deep field.
Anthony > Mummified Emperor Penguin. An emperor penguin that has wandered off, got lost, and died. It has been freeze-dried by the weather.
Anthony > Dead Weddel Seal. The seal has wandered inland and died. The cold has freeze-dried it, and the winds have stripped away some of the flesh exposing the skull.
