Trapped under Ice, a photo from Santa Cruz, South

Photographer's Note

"Freezing, can't move at all
Screaming, can't hear my call
I am dying to live
Cry out I'm trapped under ice"
Metallica

I went for a "bottom to the top" POV to emphasize the dimension of the Perito Moreno and give a sense of being "trapped" by the glacier wall

Hi Silvio - almost looks like a cluster of modern sculptures pleading and reaching upwards. You've got the blue of the ice beautifully.
cheers

Ciao Jeppo,
ti diverti con queste foto: "ghiacciate", vero?
Bello l'effetto grafico ottenuto dal contrasto tra la parte bianca e quella blu.

Mi piace! TFS!

Bonjour Silvio,
les plus beaux glaciers du monde avec ce phénomène de ce rompre dans l'océan au bout de leur vie. Festival de bleus et de blancs, une glace qui a toute une histoire à raconter.
Une contre plongée fabuleuse.
Regards.
Daniel.

Hi Silvio,
Glacier ice is really something different from norman winter ice we see here in Finland. Rough, violently broken and extraordinary blue. You really captured the feeling you were looking for with this angle.

Hello Silvio,

In understand that when ice is packed hundreds of meters deep, the sheer weight the air bubbles out of the ice, allowing the blued of water itself to show through. I've seen this effect in glaciers in Alaska. This is an artistic and powerful shot.

Warm regards (not to play on words),

Hi Silvio
The nature has made a modern sculpture and you caught it. I like the gradient of blue and white given by the light on the ice. Nice shot

Buono il punto di vista, sembra che sta per cascarci addosso!
