Not bad, but I don't think they're as dramatic or as good as Frank
Hurley's shots of the ill-fated Shackleton expedition -

And you can buy them too, including the Ice Grotto shot on a linked
page. Doesn't include some of my favorites tho', such as shots inside
the Endurance as it was being crushed. Given the circumstances, it's
amazing that any of the negs survived that trip.
