A week or two before I left the Pole I was invited to take some aerial photographs of the station, at the request of the NSF. (Several of us did this, I got to do it through dogged persistence.) It was way fun. I’ll try to remember to post some photos. And yesterday I found out that one of my photos is being shown in the Oceanographic and Polar Museum in Monaco. Cool!
