Title: HMAS Penguin Pool - Antarctica
Post by: Josh-H on May 13, 2012, 10:12:59 pm

From my last expedition to Antarctica at the end of 2011. Story about this iceberg and photograph on my BLOG (http://blog.jholko.com)

That's quite the cruise ship iceberg you've got there!  More interesting is the perspective.  And you're right, the weather contributes a lot to the image.

Wow, I love it. Strange shape and beautiful colors... The berg at the top right of the photo helps to fill the frame.
Well done, once again!

Mike,
You were not that wrong with your "cruise ship". Actually, the Planet Solar boat that completed a round trip around the planet looks kind of the same!

I was thinking it looked lie the bow section of the Titanic. Nice shot!

Wonderful image. Very different from most shots of icebergs and those frigid waters.
Thank you for sharing.
Dave
