Photograph from 1911 taken by Herbert Ponting whilst with Scott's Antarctic Expedition

The monochrome photo is taken from within a cave. The walls of the cave are made of ice. The cave entrance is in the mid distance with two figures standing looking out towards a distant ship. Between them and the ship there is first a 'beach' of ice before the sea itself. The ship could be up to 800 metres away

What makes the photo so special is that where the figures are at the cave entrance there is a band of very white snow and ice (contrasting with the comparatively dark inside of the cave) that creates a stark framework in which the men and the ship are captured. It is made even more dramatic by the fact that the cave entrance is at least 30 metres high and is in the shape of a distorted elipse with the tail sloping off to the right at the top of the elipse

The photo being in monochrome in a largely white environment makes the photographers skill all the more laudable

This photo was taken in 1911 using glass plate technology by Herbert Ponting who was part of Scott's Antarctic expedition,

The composition and detail are exquisite with the band of white snow/ice creating a perfect frame around the two people and the ship in the distance

Iconic imo

The Stranglers used to do Bowie covers like 'The Laughing Gnome' and 'Heroes' but they don't do Gnome or Heroes any more.

view down a steep street, houses line the road on both sides as people head up the hill towards the camera, a man struggles with a bike and a mand and woman push a pram.

A bit later but hearing the Heartbeat theme tune always gave me the fear of school the next morning. Still does actually and I'm 43.

Is there a limit to how many times you can watch ICE falling on ICE?
