silence
Larsoman Hills, (Princess Elizabeth Land) January 1954
Utterly isolated here, as on another planet from what we see about us... ...and the silence is accentuated by the scene, and the scene intensifies the silence. You feel, the word lives for the first time, estranged. as soon as it is spoken.
Jack Ward, Radio operater with Australian Antarctic Division, Mawson diary (1954)
