Antarctica is 'hot'. Thousands of tourists visit the continent every year. But while most of them do so on board large, comfortable cruiseships, Dutch travel photographer Thijs Heslenfeld wanted true adventure.
He boarded the Dutch barque Europa and sailed it all the way from Argentina to South Africa. A journey of discovery to some of the loneliest, coldest and most beautiful places on earth.
His Antarctic images have been published in magazines worldwide, including National Geographic Adventure, GEO Saison, Yachting World and Voiles et Voiliers. The best photographs have been put together in 'Cold - sailing to Antarctica', an impressive tribute to one of the last real adventures this planet has to offer.
The book got raving reviews, got two reprints within a year and was one of the best selling Dutch photo books in 2008.
Cold - Sailing to Antarctica, photographs Thijs Heslenfeld, with the English logbook from captain Klaas Gaastra, 184 pages, full colour, 21 x 26,5 cm, hardcover, ISBN 9789081247016, third edition, price € 34,50 .
