It is late on January 1, 2015 and I cannot help but think I was last year at this time, and how my 2014 started.
You see, my 2014 started with a Polar Plunge in Antarctic waters.

While this New Year's Day was much different, namely in that I was pretty cozy all day and the closest I got to cold water was drinking it out of a glass, I am so happy that I have this memory to cherish.
While I know that the way to move forward is not to look back, I cannot help but look back on how 2014 started. My trip to the Falkland Islands, South Georgia Island and Antarctica has occupied my mind since I got back last January and has changed my perspective of the world we live in. This is a place that I have fallen in love with and want to share as much as possible in order to raise awareness of the importance of the polar regions.
I am still in the goal planning phase for 2015. I had some great experiences in 2014, and am planning some great things for my photography in 2015.
