  Amazing to think that with such cold waters the film didn't retriculate.

• Oliver Hammond said:

  Frank Hurley was probably the luckiest photographer who ever lived. On the Endurance expedition, he dove into the Antarctic waters to retrieve his glass-plate negatives from the slowly sinking ship, then survived the months-long trek and wait for rescue. He had to leave behind most of his exposed plates because they were too heavy to carry, so he buried them in the ice and snow. Years later, he returned to Antarctica and retrieved them--and all of his photos survived.

  Simply stunning to see these shots hundred years after the fact. They seem so fresh and clear and considering the conditions and equipment there and then, I think they are humbling for today's photographers.

  @J e n s - considering the conditions, the equipment and the downright enormous gloves I have to agree - they're almost miraculous. -- Courtney

  Incredible.

  great proportion. I didn't realize how big it actually looked until i saw the ant-sized people on the bottom. Took my breath away.
