I am pleased to announce that once again I will be the guest photographer on an epic 20-day Antarctica & South Georgia
voyage with Aurora Expeditions in November 2026.

We will be sailing on the Douglas Mawson, the newest of Aurora’s three beautifully appointed ships. This small, purpose-built ship
features the Ulstein X-BOW® design, that cuts through the swell for a smoother transit through waves while minimising its
environmental impact. 

This is the quintessential polar voyage, as we follow in the footsteps of the great explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton, best known for the
Endurance Expedition in 1914–16, famous as a story of remarkable perseverance and survival. We will experience the magnificent icy
landscapes of the Antarctic Peninsula, home to extraordinary icebergs and entertaining penguins. Further north, we sail into the
spectacular Antarctic Sound and navigate as far as possible into the Weddell Sea, where Shackleton’s Endurance met its fate. We will
then make our way to Elephant Island, the desolate outpost where Shackleton and his men finally made landfall after 497 days at sea.
The final leg of our voyage will take us across the Scotia Sea to South Georgia, where Shackleton’s voyage reached its remarkable
conclusion. We will spend our time exploring and photographing the rugged mountain scenery and huge congregations of wildlife,
including the largest king penguin colonies on Earth.
