To sayanwithsenice: about contrast
Sayan,

Yes Paul, the weather down there is definitely a phenomenon of its own. It is the coldest and windiest continent. The pictures here are when it is 'summer' there. Imagine what winter must be like......

Hi Leo,
The cold, blue hue of the scene was amazing to me. The whole blue sky sits over this huge field of white snow, and I think the light is just being scattered/reflected by the tiny ice...

Hi Johannes,
Yes, in Antarctica the sense of scale we are used to is rendered completely useless! There is nothing to give you any idea of how far/big things are.

Hi Marine,
Yes, I didn't think about it that way when I titled the picture. But, yes this is indeed a human bias of top vs. bottom.
