Through this collection of photographs, Gaston Lacombe takes us on a journey to the small corner of Antarctica surrounding Argentina's Esperanza base. While the typical image of Antarctica might be that of a white, barren place, Lacombe reveals a more lively and colorful side of this little known continent. Summer on the Antarctic peninsula is a time when penguins come to land to raise their young, when flowing water sculpts land and glaciers, and when algae blooms tint the snow in the most unexpected colors.
