Whalers bay is an active volcano in the South Shetland Islands. It was heavily used in the whaling days and the site itself close in 1931 due to a drop in whale oil prices. Since then the volcano has erupted 3 times, with the last time in 1971. This image is taken from a place called Neptunes window looking back into Whalers Bay.
It is quite rare to see this place in sunshine and no wind. Last time I was there it was blowing 70knots and was snowing very heavily AND this was in summer...

Even though it looks like a sunny day with no winds, it still looks cold to us. It must have been freezing. But then again, you're probably use to it.
