Ditto - very nice picture.
Regarding Michael's question about the difference in color temperature of the berg versus that of the snow on the glacier --
This is not scientific and I've done no research, but could it be that the snow on the glacier has a slightly different composition since it fell as precepitation from the sky whereas the berg has been dipped in the chemically rich ocean water?

Bergs are bluer than snow, by far. Be aware that many icebergs have been in glaciers where they were covered by hundreds of feet of snow for thousands of years. This compresses all the oxygen and air out of the ice and gives them a distinctly blue cast. Some of them are VERY blue. And as Icebergs float around, the bottom has the snow melt off and what you get left is BLUE ice. The 'bergs eventually flop over so you get these weird blue jaggies all over the place.
For example:
Look at all the blue ice surrounding the center iceberg. The color on that is pretty accurate.
In fact, we saw some weird colors on the 'bergs, some that the staff didn't even know what was going on. For example:
What's that green stuff? It was actually green ice on the side of the iceberg. Nobody knew WHY.
