I am not only in love with wildlife photography, but also a sailor. So I decided to make an expedition of a lifetime and sail to Antarctica on a small sailing boat with a small crew. This adventure gave me a chance to stay close to nature and explore its beauty at full. I was impressed by icebergs. It is difficult to grasp the beauty of these floating giants of all forms and shapes. This particular one was just like a table mountain with frozen plateau on top. As we were there during polar day, there was the most impressive light.
