Clarke Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 I recommend you take the aerial route Clarke' date=' the ice is extremely thick out there and there is a danger the ship could get stuck in the ice.[/quote'] Thanks for the tip, there's the small problem that I'm on an Indian salary now and hence all fancy international trips have been postponed indefinitely :P
EnterTheVoid Posted January 1, 2014 Author Posted January 1, 2014 Awesome! Envy worthy stuff! Keep them coming' date=' and wish you more such awesome expeditions in future.[/quote']
EnterTheVoid Posted January 1, 2014 Author Posted January 1, 2014 This image puts into perspective just how big Antarctica is:
NareshK Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 Awesome pics, mate. Post more. :nice: I would like to go to Antarctica some time in my life, if that's even possible.
EnterTheVoid Posted January 1, 2014 Author Posted January 1, 2014 An area with valleys and lakes. I guess this would be a good place to set up a research station: The other extreme:
EnterTheVoid Posted January 1, 2014 Author Posted January 1, 2014 Awesome pics, mate. Post more. :nice: I would like to go to Antarctica some time in my life, if that's even possible. Very much possible. I am in my early 20's, if I can do it, anyone can. The remnants of a recent avalanche:
EnterTheVoid Posted January 1, 2014 Author Posted January 1, 2014 A nightmarish landscape. How can anyone live in such an environment is beyond me: It is all slowly melting away :((
EnterTheVoid Posted January 1, 2014 Author Posted January 1, 2014 Celebrating NYE in Antarctica - Private aeroplane, private band. Love the irony of the dudes wearing Hawaiian shirts whilst touring some of the coldest places on earth.
South_Paw Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 Terrific Dude. Never was able to see this much of pics. The ones that is available on internet are only the ones those were taken at groun level which much looks like some place in northern Canada. These excellently depicts the vastness and the uniqueness of Antartica.
EnterTheVoid Posted January 1, 2014 Author Posted January 1, 2014 I am actually very disturbed by what I saw out there. If any of those large icebergs start melting, we have an uncontrollable catastrophe on our hands. The icebergs there are melting, I have posted multiple pictures showing it. :((
Clarke Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 ^ A big reason why some of us hate those conzzzvative hacks.
SLICKR392 Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 ****ing AMAZING clicks, dude. You really need to chop off that plane wing, ruining the pics.
Texy Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 Sree is the man. He knows how to live life. Some of us can learn a thing or two from him. Amazing adventure spirit :hatsoff:
Pioneer Posted January 1, 2014 Posted January 1, 2014 Damn thats nice as hell. Any chance you got to encounter any of the wildlife there? ( if there was any in that area )
EnterTheVoid Posted January 1, 2014 Author Posted January 1, 2014 We were too high up to observe the wildlife. We flew over the American research station of McMurdo tho, it was like a self contained city.
EnterTheVoid Posted January 2, 2014 Author Posted January 2, 2014 ****ing AMAZING clicks' date=' dude. You really need to chop off that plane wing, ruining the pics.[/quote'] Here is something a little different:
EnterTheVoid Posted January 2, 2014 Author Posted January 2, 2014 The pictures I have posted give an insight into the geography, topography and natural beauty of Antarctica. However, they do not do justice to the once in a lifetime experience of actually visiting there. If you get a chance to go to Antarctica - plane/ship - go there!
