Des' Alaska/Canada Trip #13 - Ice, Ice, Baby
What's a trip to Alaska without shots of icebergs eh?
Glacier Bay The ship clears a path through the ice for some sea kayakers, with the Johns Hopkins Glacier in the background 
This doesn't look that impressive until you realise the wall of ice is probably 60-80m tall!! We stood there are watched the glacier calving continuously for ages - probably once every couple of minutes, acompanied by a loud crack, like thunder. 
Tracy Arm South Sawyer Glacier - all the bits of ice are falling off this glacier!!

Those last two images are superb - especially the second last which has wonderful use of foreground to draw the viewer into the shot. And please, I know you're excited about the great images you've captured, but our guidelines are no more than 4 images per post.  Peter

I'm liking #1 and #5. Love the contrast of the kayaks on the water, and how big was the chunk of ice in the last one?
Looks like you had a great holiday!
Cheers guys! That big squarish block of ice on top of the even bigger bit of ice was roughly 4WD-sized
Them's some BIG floating bits of ice, especially if you consider apparently 90% is below the surface
Des,
the fourth one is awesome, great shot with the ice flow and the fjord in the distance. First one is also very nice. Cheers, André Photography, as a powerful medium of expression and communications, offers an infinite variety of perception, interpretation and execution. Ansel Adams
