"Frail beauty": it's Nature's motto these days. Polar Attractions applies it to the Arctic and Antarctic sides of the Earth. Immaculate panoramas of blank ice and motley woods of the Great North, a painting of an iceberg made from polar ice, an origami penguin... More good reasons to save the planet.
