The center of the photo op features a large rectangular yellow frame, mimicking the logo for National Geographic. The frame sits atop a white platform meant to resemble an iceberg. A larger wall of ice is positioned behind the frame, with a circular plaque that reads “Our Home” and displays the National Geographic and Disney logos.
