[Leica] Panoramas

[Jayanand Govindaraj]

A dozen panoramas from mu trip to South Georgia. These are all multi panel
panoramas taken hand held - I really had no option if I wanted to capture
landscapes because I invariably had a telephoto lens with me when I was on
shore, or in a zodiac! One word of caution - these have been reduced in
size a great deal in order to post it online, so fine details may have been
lost - but it does give a general idea of the beauty of the place.

First, the beautiful and otherworldly Tierra Del Fuego National Park, just
outside Ushuaia at the southernmost tip of Argentina. We visited in a
snowstorm, and I took these panoramas between flurries (the first is full
colour, the second is monochrome):

Next are the ruins of two of the major whaling stations where the carnage
took place - both also have a strong connection to Ernest Shackleton -
Stromness was the termination point of his epic journey and Grytviken is
where he is buried:

The rest are various locations on the island:

Salisbury Plain - the first two are the views on either side of our landing
area, and the third is a monochrome one:

Gold Harbour, aka Blubber Central, where we could not land because of the
density of Elephant Seals on shore, taken from the zodiac:
