American explorer Doug Stoup and Richard Dunwoody, a retiredBritish horse jockey, became the first to reach the South Pole via a routefirst attempted by famed explorer Ernest Shackleton in 1914. Dubbing their expedition Beyond Shackleton, the replica Breitling Aeromarine Chrono Men's watch team set off near the Ronne Ice Shelf on December 1, and then dragged 250-pound sledges for 48 days across more than 650 miles of hellishly cold, crevasse-riddled ice and snow.This has been the hardest thing I have ever undertaken, both physicallyand mentally, with every day a 12-hour slog,
often uphill, on skis and pullingcumbersome sleds that just seemed to get heavier as we got lighter,Dunwoody told the BBC. I am exhausted.After a nearly two-month journey, Stoup and Dunwoody reached the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station replica Breitling A3235011-C6- Men's watch onJanuary 18, which happened to be Dunwoodys birthday, and celebratedwith coffee and biscuits. (Happy Birthday, Doug!). During the course of the unsupported expedition--meaning no food drops, noresupply, and lots of lonely nights--Dunwoody and Stoup burned about 8,000 calories a day and each lostclose to 30 pounds. Additionally, Dunwoody says he suffered snow blindness andaltitude sickness.
That day sucked. Which image is your favorite?My favorite image is the picture of the road in Point Reyes National Seashore. It was an early morning sunrise and the road just seemed to light up. Almost like an invitation for exploration. There were deer running around on the bluffs and we could see the coast on both sides of us. It was a picturesque replica Technomarine watch road trip moment, and I think that all the beauty of the trip is kinda summed up in that photo. What did you learn during this project that youve now applied to your photography going forward?Everything. This trip was a full on learning experience for me and I feel like I can attribute all my knowledge to something I learned along the way. The one thing I learned that really stands out is how to document something in its entirety.
