LichtenHansen > Polar Star, our expedition ship, at anchor off Petermann Island, Antarctica. The southern entrance to the Lemaire Channel is in the background.There is a small Gentoo Penguin colony on the rocks and the reddish color of the snow in the foreground is due to penguin guano.
LichtenHansen > Arctic char 0.7 kg (1.5 lb) caught by Ida. Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) grows to about 2 kg (2.4 lb) in these waters, but the smaller ones are better to eat and this one is a perfect size for 2 people. Fishing is very good in this part of Lapland and you can also catch Greyling (Thymallus thymallus) and trout. Lake Vallasjauri near Leavasjokk in Swedish Lapland.
LichtenHansen > Co-existence on the beach. Who owns this beach? Antarctic fur seal and King penguins. Fortuna Bay, South Georgia Island.
LichtenHansen > Two Wandering Albatrosses in mating ritual on Albatross Island, South Georgia Island. The Wandering Albatross has the largest wingspan of any living bird, with the average wingspan being 3.1 meters (10.2 ft). It is on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, mostly because of long line fishing after tuna, which kills about 5% of the population every year.
