Antarctic Ice

by Ron on January 21, 2013

The amazing ice in Antarctica provided endless photo opportunities.  This particular day around Brown Bluff had to be some of the best.  I was taking a group of passengers “Zodiac cruising”, one of my favorite activities, and we found a bunch of large icebergs that had become grounded by the low tide.   Being grounded helped to reveal some amazing details and patterns typically hidden below the water level including what you see here.

This is our last day in Southern California as I thaw out for a few days in Anza-Borrego.  Tomorrow we head back to Alaska!  It will be nice to be home.

Wow, is that beautiful or what? I didn’t know you’d gone to Antarctica–very exciting. I hope you’ll post a lot of photos from the trip. Beautiful shot, Ron.

Thanks!

@Jeff – yes, I was a photo guide and Zodiac operator for Chesseman’s Tours – awesome trip!

Of all the Antarctic ice photos I’ve seen posted over the years, this is by far my favorite. Fantastic photo, Ron.
