Baily Head: Waves of these beauties continued to arrive fresh from the sea. . Baily Head is the home of an estimated 100,000 pairs of Chinstrap penguins. It was amazing. . . [Completing this project.

Deception Island: The island was named due to its outward appearance as a normal island when it’s actually an active volcano with a flooded interior crater or caldera. . Early sealers and whalers were delighted to discover the entrance into the caldera for use as a protected harbor. . Here is the view standing in Telefon Bay and looking across the volcano’s flooded crater (caldera) to the narrow entrance known as Neptune’s Bellows. . And a few more views around Telefon Bay with the Hans Hansson at anchor for scale. . [Completing this project.
