The interior of the Norwegian Anglican Church in Grytviken, South Georgia. The church is a heritage site from when it served the whaling station located on the island. The view looks over the pews to a high arched window. Inside the church is a large fire stove for heating. Outside is a mixture of grass and mud turning to snow as the window reveals the mountain slope beside the church.

Football is a universal sport, so it’s no surprise that the whaling stations of South Georgia regularly got together to play matches!

Inside the wooden storage building at the closed whaling station in Grytviken, South Georgia island in the South Atlantic Ocean. A battered cabinet rest against a stark wall. Scattered on the floor is a collection of old motors and valves covered in rust and dust. A tail cupboard with cubbyholes contains a variety of nails and screws. The entire scene is illuminated by a bare bulb light fixture.
