	Captain James Francis (Frank) Hurley, OBE
		James Francis Hurley was born at Glebe, Sydney, in 1885 and became interested in photography as a young man. He began his career with a Sydney postcard company at the age of 20 in 1905.
		Hurley grew to regard photography as a medium that could be manipulated to achieve a desired effect and he began to follow the well-established practice of making composite prints by combining two or more negatives to make an image.
		A self-described “showman”, Hurley had spent years producing popular attractions using the latest photographic and film techniques, and he was confident that he knew which images would engage the public’s imagination.

		Hurley never saw himself in an exclusively documentary role, preferring to use his creativity and technical skills as a photographer to construct images that went beyond the objective recording of surface appearances; pictures that would communicate the grim and desperate reality of an entire event within a single, highly charged descriptive image.
		Hurley’s photographs from this period remind us of the tremendous difficulties endured by Douglas Mawson and his men, the blizzards, the freezing temperatures, the total isolation and the perils of sailing through crushing ice.
		Hurley’s photographs are clearly the work of a passionate and concerned observer; an inventive artist that created images of such commanding beauty and power that they continue to hold meaning and relevance to modern audiences.

		James Francis Hurley was by nature a loner whose photographic career began with a Sydney postcard company in 1905.
		He was also interested in pictorialism – the idea that photographs could express ideas, tell stories and excite emotions in much the same way as paintings – feeling that this style gave photography the expressive potential of art.
		Hurley returned to London in March 1918 to oversee an exhibition of Australian war art and photography.

	South - Ernest Shackleton and the Endurance Expedition \| South:Shackleton and the Endurance
		When Frank Hurley loaded his cameras onto the Endurance in August 1914, ready to set sail with Ernest Shackleton 's Trans-Antarctic expedition, he had no idea of what he would end up filming.
		Hurley even filmed the moment when the ship, crushed by the ice, finally sank: a few seconds of film that are agonizing to watch even now.
		Hurley's original working title for this film was "Endurance," but when it was released in known as "In the Grip of Polar Ice" in Australia and "Shackleton's Expedition to the Antarctic" in the UK.

	KODAK: The Endurance-Frank Hurley Biography
		Hurley, whose postcard business was suffering through a recession, was in debt to a local branch of Kodak.
		During the long wait for rescue on desolate Elephant Island, for example, Hurley fires off a caustic appraisal of his companions, writing of how he is disgusted with the way they have broken down.
		Incredibly, Hurley returned to the beginning of the ordeal, South Georgia Island, in the winter of 1916 to try to finish the story: He had missed only one part of the saga—Shackleton’s perilous voyage back to South Georgia to get help.

	dimensions_in_time - 23/9/2002: Frank Hurley
		Hurley joined Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition in 1914 and pretty soon, he found himself out on the bowsprit filming the ship 'Endurance' ploughing through pack-ice and taking enormous risks in the process.
		Hurley stood so close taking this picture that the ship's stern broke off part of the floe on which he was standing.
		And over time, Hurley recorded its death throes in every creaking groan and grind as the ship was crushed and then swallowed up by the ice.

		Sir Ernest Shackleton 's trans-Antarctic expedition of 1914-1917 was one of the great feats of human endurance — one vividly captured in the powerful and dramatic pictures taken by Frank Hurley, the expedition’s official photographer.
		The story told here through Frank Hurley’s lens began in the summer of 1914, when Shackleton and his crew set sail from England with the intention of being the first to cross Antarctica from one coast to the other, passing through the South Pole on the way.
		Almost as incredible is the fact that so much of this drama was captured on film by Frank Hurley, and that so many of these pictures survived.

	Official War Photographers - Hurley and Parer photographs and film [Australian War Memorial]
		The names of Frank Hurley and Damien Parer are probably as familiar to many people as their photographs, which are often of high aesthetic and technical standard and have been reproduced many times over.
		Some of their images have achieved icon status, but these men are only two of a large number of war photographers (taking both still and moving images) whose work is held in the Memorial's collection.
		There is little of the war experience which is not represented in the collection among the work of the official war photographers.

		Hurley, who worked with both still and movie cameras, also made an expedition film, “Home of the Blizzard,” which was shown in England.
		Fearless and innovative, Hurley climbed masts, trekked across quivering ice, and ventured into the frigid night to take his extraordinary pictures.

		South was the result of his filming, but even more spectacular than that was his photography including dramatic pictures of Endurance trapped in the ice, and Shackleton setting off for help.

		Hurley was taken along to document the expedition, and document it he did, despite the fact that it turned out completely differently than any of the men would have ever wanted or imagined.
		Frank Hurley was an exceptional photographer who just happened to take pictures of a journey that without them would be simply unbelievable.
		Other members of the crew could have been more resentful of Hurley, due to the time he spent in his darkroon (he was not part of the ship's crew, therefore was not obliged to stand watch) and shooting film.

	Antarctic Eyewitness: Charles F. Faseron's South With Mawson and Frank Hurley's Shackleton's Argonauts (Book) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		This new book combines Charles Laseron's 1947 "South With Mawson" and Frank Hurley's 1948 "Shackleton's Argonauts" in one volume, continuing the wonderful flood of reprints relating to the heroic era of Antarctic exploration.
		Laseron's account of the 1912 Mawson expedition is full of human interest, and makes a useful adjunct to Mawson's own, somewhat drier account in "Home of the Blizzard." Laseron was a careful observer of his surroundings and his fellow expedition members, and his writing style is vivid and often humorous.
		Frank Hurley's "Shackleton's Argonauts" is a gripping description of the Endurance expedition, also illustrated with some of Hurley's magnificent photographs.

		The analysis of the Edisonades is interesting: Nevins quotes SF critics who argue that despite the useful influence in the development of children's SF, the genre was characterised by "very bad writing, sadism, ethnic rancor, factual ignorance and an exploitational mentality".
		Hurley continued to pioneer the use of the Paget colour system as an official photographer in WW1 on his return from Antarctica.
		More on Hurley at the Australian War Memorial's Captured in colour exhibition, which includes sections on early colour processes, the work of Hurley and Wilkins, and the French autochromists.
