Colder and deeper


National Geographic has a picture gallery of underwater pictures taken on a recent expedition to see what's under the ice of Antarctica.

One thing that's obvious -- the water is extremely clear.  (I was going to say "One thing is clear...", but I refrained.  Well, maybe I didn't.  Anyway, the water is extremely clear.  And lots of unusual things are living down there.)

Here's my favorite.  Doesn't seem to bother this seal pup that he's immersed in very frigid waters.  It shouldn't -- he's a seal.
