Photographer Dave Brosha's follow-up to Northern Light accentuates the beautiful, fragile, and remote landscapes of Earth's southernmost regions.

When one thinks of the most remote place on Earth, Antarctica is a strong candidate for many people. It's a remarkably isolated place, a place with some of the harshest weather systems on the planet, and a place that is both prohibitively expensive and logistically challenging to travel to. Despite this challenging persona, Antarctica is home to some of the most stunning beauty on the planetβ€”home to an abundance of thriving and diverse wildlife populations and incredibly dramatic landscapes.

In this collection of photographs from Antarctica and its geographic neighbours, South Georgia and the Falkland Islands, respected nature and portrait photographer and writer, Dave Brosha, turns his attention to documenting one of the 'ends of the Earth' in the hope of bringing attention and focus to one of our world's most pristine and beautiful areas.
