Check out legendary Brazilian photojournalist Sebastião Salgado‘s gallery of photos from Antarctica at Rolling Stone’s Web site.
Salgado’s photojournalistic rendering of the landscapes and animals in high-contrast black and white is refreshing and effective. It’s not often that you see great landscape work that goes for the throat while still expressing the character of a place and isn’t obsessed with tonal range. I’ve been wanting to shoot Antarctica for a while now and this has only added fuel to the fire.
