I'm excited to announce that I will be spending the next 3 months in Antarctica, working as an expedition guide and photo lecturer. I'm looking forward to expanding my polar horizons to now include both poles, and - of course - will be bringing a few cameras with me.

I will be away from regular email and phone access until March 24th, 2016, when I will burst back into action with some exciting new projects, updates and exhibitions. Until then, thanks for an incredible year, and warmest wishes for the holiday season!
