There's a lot of white out there

This is an amazing photo of Ross Island. It is the Island I lived on while in Antarctica. The island is the white thing in the lower right hand corner of the photo. I mean left hand corner. That was funny for me. The more dense white part is the permanent iceshelf and the less dense is the temporary ice shelf. The more dense white stuff in the center of the photo are enormous icebergs. They were at one time called B-15 but since it broke apart it has other names like B-15a, B-15b and B-15c. It can be complicated but I think if you think about it hard enough it will make sense. McMurdo Station, the place I lived, is located on the small arm that is pointing straight down from the island. It is at the very tip. If you look close enough you can see me waving. And if you can see me I'll tell you how I took the photo.
