Clear off your coffee table and prepare for a wild ride...Circumnavigation Antarctica is the Ultimate Book for the Ultimate Continent! This book measures 41 inches x 11 inches x 5 inches! It weighs 27 lbs. and is one of the largest books ever produced. It is filled with 31 color panoramic 360 degree photo prints telling the story of Everen's 59 day Circumnavigation of Antarctica, aboard the Russian Icebreaker Kapitan Khlebnikov. Traveling 12,565 nautical miles, 17 helicopter excursions, 21 zodiac landings, crossing 24 times zones and shooting over 1281 feet of film to create this work of art. Each image was printed by hand on archival photo paper rated to last 200 years, then mounted on museum quality card stock to create each unique page. Antarctica is a land of many contrasts, from the volleyball court at the Chinese research base, to the destruction of an old whaling camp at Deception Island, you will be surprised at what you find at the bottom of the world. Frozen in time, the historic huts of the golden age of exploration stand as silent sentinels, reminding modern polar explorers of this harsh and unforgiving land. Striking images of nature coincide with man's impact on the rugged terrain. The splendor of panoramic 360 degree photography takes you on a wild ride on the wild side of Antarctica. A narrative binder acompanies each book telling the story of Everen's journey. This book was originally offered to collector's in 1998. Only a handful of copies remain. The prints were made directly from each negative. Price includes shipping worldwide. Once these few copies are sold out, this limited edition book will not be offered again. Signed and numbered.
