We just returned from a trip to Antarctica. It was simply wonderful. This is the very first iceberg that I saw. I was so thrilled. In the days to follow, we would see MANY more. I have always wanted to make this trip but was so afraid of being seasick. I had every imaginable medication with me, but only needed to use a patch. Thanks for looking at this and commenting if you wish. ENJOY!

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Jen - The first iceberg - how great for a photographer to have low side lighting to capture the textures and contrasts just right! Magnificent! Thad

Ice beauty! Great photography!
I have a friend - a photographer, a marvelous and ambitious lady who two weeks ago returned from his second expedition to the Bulgarian base on Antarctica. She says that the ice continent feels best and thinks it is her place in the world.

...The right side of it looks like the face of some kind of gigantic abominable "snowman"! Nice catch!
