On October 21st of 2008 I boarded the Russian icebreaker Kaptain Khlebnikov to begin my fourth voyage to Antarctica. I was on this voyage as the “Photographer in Residence”, brought on by Quark Expeditions the operator of this along with several other expedition class ships that travel to this region. We would be at sea for ten days heading into the Weddell Sea along the eastern side of the Antarctic Peninsula to an area near Snow Hill Island. The purpose of the voyage was to reach an Emperor Penguin colony which had only been visited for the first time in 2004.
