Visiting this thread causes increasing fascination.

I love especially the blech drawing on Majestic Blue from @axialix and the Zinc from @mizgeorge. Both, so well done!

Fascinating 🖖

In honor of Ernest Shackleton’s ship Endurance, which once was lost but now is found:

 

I missed reading about the discovery of the Endurance before. That is new news to me - thank you! That Shackleton expedition is one of the best 'real life' stories.

 

And splendid picture too!

I love true stories about the polar explorers too. One of my favorites is about Douglas Mawson, an Australian chap who traversed Antarctica about the time of Shackleton. The book is called Alone on the Ice by David Roberts.
