The Most Amazing Colours

What colour would you generally associate with Antarctica? Yes, you reading this post, this question is directed at you. I bet your answer would be white. And, generally speaking, you'd be fairly accurate. However we get every colour of the rainbow down here and they are phenomenaly vivid. The pinks and purples at the later stages of sunrise and sunset and the orange during the early parts are beautiful. And what of the intense blue of the sky or the greens, occasional reds and rare blues of the Aurora Australis simply blow the mind. Enjoy the photos.
