This photo was taken in 1911 using glass plate technology by Herbert Ponting who was part of Scott's Antarctic expedition,

The composition and detail are exquisite with the band of white snow/ice creating a perfect frame around the two people and the ship in the distance

Iconic imo

Morning magic. A rare show of snow here in Suffolk, England.

How cold my toes

On this day 40 years ago the first episode of of a masterpiece was shown on BBC2 & repeated on BBC1 almost immediately.

Forever grateful to my 6th form English teacher for recording it on vhs and playing it to our class over several lessons though it was certainly not curriculum!

Word of the Day is ‘tandsmør’, from Danish. It describes bread that is buttered so thickly you can see tooth marks in it after every bite. Its literal translation? ‘Tooth butter’.
