A centred image of Hillary Hut in the New Zealand Antarctic station of Scott Base. The hut is named in honour of Sir Edmund Hillary and was a kitset erected in 1957. It was recently repainted in its original colours of yellow and orange. Mountains can be seen in the background and 'Voices from Antarctica' text sits above against blue sky.
