South Georgia (Sub-Antarctica)
"South Georgia is one of the jewels of the sub Antarctic. An island steeped in the history of wild-men sealers and whalers who plundered its resources, or explorers like Ernest Shackleton swept up upon its shores and who crossed its glacial rugged hinterland to safety; and a long history of being a way-point to the frozen south of Antarctica itself. Today beautiful mountains, flourishing colonies of albatross and seals, superb vistas and the rusting remains of man's bloody occupation are a visual feast to artists and photographers. South Georgia is an Antartctic oasis - precious, remote, a glimpse of how the world once was."
