329: Let’s Go to Antarctica with Marc Muench and Richard Bernabe

For many, a trip to Antarctica is at the top of our bucket lists. For nature and landscape photographers, Antarctica is a dream destination. Images of blizzards, icebergs, penguins, whales, seals, and incredibly landscapes are conjured; however, planning a trip there can be quite challenging and daunting. This week on the F-Stop Collaborate and Listen Podcast, I sat down with two Muench Workshops Pros, including Richard Bernabe and Marc Muench to talk all about our experiences in getting to and photographing the incredible continent of Antarctica.  On this week's episode, we discuss: What the experience of Antarctica is like for a nature and landscape photographer. What to expect from a trip to Antarctica. How to get to Antarctica. What it is like to cross the Drake Passage on a boat. How to make good photographs in Antarctica. How to deal with cold weather in Antarctica. What kind of wildlife one can expect while in Antarctica. Pro tips on making the most of your trip to Antarctica. And a lot more! Other topics/links discussed on the podcast this week: Support the podcast on Patreon. Take a trip with Muench Workshops to Antarctica. Richard's Chinstrap Penguin photo we discussed.
