Not gonna lie: tears were shed.

This is a story well worth hearing, one of bravery and true friendship.

This REALLY is an amazing book - an account of #Scott's fateful journey to the South Pole told by one of the expedition's survivors. What these #Polar explorers went through is unimaginable. It's an honest, unemotional and unfiltered account ... quite disturbing towards the end. #CaptainScott #SouthPole #PolarExploration

Thoroughly recommend adding Herbert Ponting’s ‘The Great White Silence’ to your watch list if you haven’t already — the official record of Captain Scott’s heroic journey to the South Pole and a treasured Blu-ray from The British Film Institute.

Hoping the book is as good as the cover! A thoughtful gift from my son: a biography by Anne Strathie about Herbert Ponting, one of my favourite photographers and filmmakers.

Among many achievements, Ponting famously documented Captain Scott’s second Antarctic expedition to the South Pole in 1912.

The cover portrait shows Ponting at Cape Evans with his Prestwich Kinematograph cine camera.
