An exhibition of Antarctic photography opens at The Queen's Gallery this week, marking the centenary of Captain Scott's journey to the South Pole in 1910.

These extraordinary, dramatic ice-scapes derive from two expeditions, the Terra Nova in 1910 and Endurance from 1914-17. These images are not only amazing in themselves, but for the kind of landscape, characters and hope against the odds that they depict.

Until 15.04.11.
