Memories from Antarctic Book 4: This picture book is a record of a part of a cruise from South America to the Antarctic Peninsula: as far south as the Antarctic Circle. It is one of 5 such books covering the trip south and then north. From the Lemair Channel covered in Book 3, the cruise then continued north along Graham land. There are views of Anvers Island as well as Wiencke Island with their spectacular mountain ranges. The scenery never gets boring along the Gerlach strait with humpback whales diving for food. Ending with a visit to Paradise harbour and some wonderful ice sculptures floating in the water. It provides some insight into what could be seen on such a typical trip. Each photograph has an adjoining page with a brief explanation. It is meant to show what an average person could see on such a cruise: good weather and bad! As one of the world’s last really isolated natural wonders, it is easy to get a huge range of photographs of the land, the ice and some of the denizens. The file size limit of the eBook format is the reason for 5 books. The original photographs (taken but author, and amateur, with amateur equipment) are very large and so need compressing to fit in the file limit. In this book two short videos are included of the many taken. If you have wondered what such a trip might be like, have a read. If you just would like see an amateur view of the Antarctic Peninsula as seen from the sea, have a read. If you might wonder what animals might be seen on such a trip, have a read. Ideally, have a read and get as much enjoyment as the author did in being able to collect these ‘Memories from Antarctica’.
