The Bear Glacier is receeding rapidly as it used to be almost at the place where I stood for this shot only 25 years ago. It is visible from the highway into Stewart which is located in northwestern B.C.

Hi Phil,

the colours of a glacier are just wonderful, the ice blue and the green of the water. Great capture, the cave is well placed.
Cheers Christian

Hello Phil

Hi Phil,
I would love to visit this place. Looks so spectacular. Too bad that it is receeding, this global warming issue needs to be taken seriously. Your shot is just breathtaking. I like the blue tone in it.
Well done,
Shaeri

Great close in view of a glacier, with that characteristic ice blue appearance. I like the incredible texture of the surface too, so rough with all the cracks and holes in it. Great work!

Wow.. this feels so cold, so pure at the same time. And there is this light emanating from the ice. I like it!

Hi Phil, very nice shot. The luminous blue of the glacier is very striking, almost as though the ice is glowing from within. The contrast with the dark greeny greys of the foreground also works well. Fascinating the shapes the ice breaks up into at the front of the glacier.

Hola Phil,
Bellísimo espectáculo de este glaciar. Estupendos colores, luz y detalles. Gran POV.
Cordialmente
Charo
Felices Fiestas!!!

Hi Phil...great shot of this glacier. Wonderful colors and tones. nice composition.

Roger

Phil,
great shot with the tight framing, focusing very much on the last portion of the glacier when it hits the water and the small islands infront. Very good use of the 1/3 rule placing the arch in the left side. I like the shot a lot!

Hi Phil,
Awesome nature shot of this huge glacier with it intricate details and beautiful ice cave seen in a lovely color contrast of the moss clinging to the rocky beach. Very clear color and excellent sharpness to this image.
Regards, Tom

Hi Phil,
What a wonderful photo...congratulations!!
merry christmas, Vivi

Hi Phil,
Really interesting shot. Your POV and composition gives a much different perspective. You can really tell how much the glacier has receded in respect to the land around it between this point and when I was there a few months ago. Nice colors and sharpness as well. TFS
