Berthed at Leith, Edinburgh, the Royal Yacht Britannia makes for a fascinating visit. You can probably get around all of the decks in two hours but we spent the best part of five hours on board, including a tea stop half way around and then lunch - both in the Royal Deck Tea Room. If you're visiting Edinburgh then this is a must see attraction. Highly recommended: www.royalyachtbritannia.co.uk

Begining to find
I'm low on time
Floating on the ocean in a storm
The shore is gone
And the end has drowned
But hope only shines
The brighter in the night

2.The second picture I took because I saw these rocks after a rain from a certain angle and they reminded me of floating ice fields in the arctic. I placed two small ice cubes to capture the irony of real ice on an imposter ice field. It reminds me of the idea of ice or glaciers “in the wild” may become something like a panda bear in a zoo, only recreated by people to create something lost to climate change. Along this train of thought, I remembered the wide variations in projections in Serreze’s paper, and others, for the future of our planet and wonder how different it could become from the world we know now. That’s why I titled the picture “afloat” because it captures the feeling of being afloat between what we know now and cannot stop but do not know of the future, wishing we can save what is melting before our eyes. I also think it captures the scale of ice in many different ways. For instance, how little we think about the importance of ice in our day to day actions (ice cubes) and the impact that ice and Polar Regions actually play (surroundings).
