AntarcticDoctor

Word has come to me of a team looking for a doctor for an overland traverse from the coast up to a plateau base this (southern) summer. The deployment would be approximately 3 months, with the latter half spent at a small research station. Previous expedition experience, especially polar and/or high altitude experience, as well as mountaineering skills and the ability to speak/understand German would be preferable.

I can’t go and am desperately jealous Serious inquiries only please.

I’ve been putting up more of my Antarctic images (along with other photographs, too) on my ‘general’ blog, www.wildmedic.co.za. You can link through to the Photography page here, or go to the homepage and click the photography tag to see other posts.

A new and exciting development: www.workART.co.za have approached me to make my photographs available to customers worldwide! You can now select, interactively frame and order prints online via their interface. Check it out!
