This is a collection of superb Arctic and Antarctic photographs exemplifying a unique intersection of art and science. These pictures represent the intimate viewpoint of an ice scientist who loved the frozen places few of us have visited. Klaus Hochheim's work, both scientific and aesthetic, was rooted in his profound care for beautiful and threatened polar places. The loss of Dr. Hochheim, along with two others, in a fatal accident in 2013 continues to be deeply felt.
