Deception Island: The island was named due to its outward appearance as a normal island when it’s actually an active volcano with a flooded interior crater or caldera. . Early sealers and whalers were delighted to discover the entrance into the caldera for use as a protected harbor. . Here is the view standing in Telefon Bay and looking across the volcano’s flooded crater (caldera) to the narrow entrance known as Neptune’s Bellows. . And a few more views around Telefon Bay with the Hans Hansson at anchor for scale. . [Completing this project. Posting the remaining photos from a favorite trip to #Antarctica in Jan/Feb 2017 aboard the Hans Hansson]. . #Antarctica #DeceptionIsland #TelefonBay #neptunesbellows #🌋 (at Deception Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsNrY81H4hU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xuf76l1mjg82
