One of those casually caught pictures! I saw the berg in this position and waited until a clear day with a good moon and persuaded these two to go out skiing with me. As far as photography is concerned Signy could be a bit like living in a huge film set. You'd spot the potential for a picture, make a mental note then simply wait for the right weather and lighting conditions before heading out to get your pictures. As the light changed quickly with the weather it could be a bit of a rush to get out and in position quickly enough.
