Reader postcard from Antarctica
A weekly feature of readers' travel photos.
Location: Antarctica
Photographer: Charles Porter, Kirkland
Photographer's description: This photo was taken from a dinghy in Antarctica. We were near Cuverville Island, just north of the Antarctic Circle. The arch is an iceberg eroded by wind and waves. Our cruise ship, the Endeavor, can be seen in the background.
