[QUOTE=jackelope] Oh, here’s another one: [Antarctica Time Lapse: A Year on Ice](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TemK6CF6lF0) **Warning: While the footage is breathtaking, the music SUCKS.** I suggest muting it and playing something classical.

Cooler than cool. And the second part of the video uses beautiful choral music from the Edward Scissorhands soundtrack by Danny Elfman! But you were right about the visuals. Breathtaking! Especially the aurora scenes near the end. ---

[/QUOTE] I had no idea there was different music later on; I disliked the first piece so much I never listened that far without turning the sound down (“world-beat” music truly sets my teeth on edge). Now that I listen, or rather fast-forward, you’re right; the Elfman theme works really well in that context. ---

From Anthony Powell, the same guy who brought us the “Antarctica Time Lapse: A Year on Ice,” comes his [Antarctica Supply Ship Offload Time-Lapse](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Pg6CdettEQ). It’s not as cool as the “Year on Ice,” but it’s still pretty good. And, once again, he’s picked the perfect music as the score. ---

Apparently the rest take off after it and when the eagle lands, the others try to get as close as possible and drop a beanbag on it. There are some wonderfully shaped balloons these days! ---
