This little guy was lounging around at Half Moon Island when I visited Antarctica many years ago. This was taken with a borrowed camera, the first SLR I ever used. It was during this trip that my appreciation for the art of photography began to grow (as well as my obsessions with penguins). Five cameras later it is safe to say that photographic spark in Antarctica has now become a passion.
This photo was taken just before 1am on a calm night with a full moon. The cooling air temperature and nearby river created a foggy, moody atmosphere. The bridge and fog you see here were only lit by the bright glow from a full moon during a long exposure of about 6.5 minutes. Taken at Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park in Ontario, Canada.
