Ice Wall - Alaska Photo

Photographer’s Note

Another shot from a memorable August day in '07 in the incomparable Glacier Bay: here we see the face of Margerie Glacier, one of the many tidewater glaciers in this wonderful park.

Hello Jeff,

The large version is mandatory to take benefit of this view. The cloudy sky fits very well with the scene. It should have been a great show to be there.

An amazing arctic landscape, with greys and blues which mix perfectly together. I think a cloudy sky in these landscapes helps to improves them, rather than a blue clean sky.

Hi Jeff,

Nice panoramic POV. Quite a foreboding, raw image. I just posted an Alaskan photo from my Aug. '07 trip as well. Cheers.

I like the layering of different shades of grey/blue and textures, which definitely adds to the image.

Best

Hi Jeff,
Quite an impressive glacier - we're planning an Alaska cruise later this year so hope to see sights like this enroute. Good color managment and fine details. TFS. Gerald

Hello Jeff,

I would say that this is the best image in your gallery~! It is such an incredible view and the LP makes all the difference. Sharpness and stitching are all well managed. The shot provides a very clear definition. Although it is difficult to accurately understand scale here, I would guess that the face of the glacier would be many hundreds, or perhaps even 1000+ metres across? Amazing, hope to get there someday. The RAW photos really are the only way to go now!
