The EDEN ISS Container is one of my favourite things to shoot. Maybe in part because I find the EDEN project so interesting. Unfortunately, the EDEN ISS Container won’t be operated during our overwintering. Nevertheless, it’s proven to be the ideal “model” for photographing.
On nights with no wind, I enjoy hanging around the EDEN ISS Container. There’s no light pollution from the station, so you have the best possible view of the night sky.

Though you can’t see many stars when it’s a full moon, you almost feel like you’re on another planet.

In the last picture shot at a full moon above, you have a perfect view of the Neumayer Station in the background. That’s not always the case. Once I ventured out to the EDEN ISS Container, with Werner and my camera, during a storm with windspeeds up to 50 knots (ca. 90 km/h).
Last but not least, I’d like to share some pictures of the sunset: the perfect time to relax and enjoy the moment.
