I love "intrepid photographer" captures. They are always SO worth the trouble it took! This is amazing. #6404260Dominick M. Dimacale September 03, 2008

Beautiful capture! #6404598Songbird Cline September 03, 2008
thanks everyone.. it took about 4 hours to dry off as it was cold and continued raining all day, and it was a long drive back to home base.. BUT it was worth braving the elements for the photo! #6405918Denny E. Barnes September 03, 2008
Beautiful capture of blue ice, Songbird! It always amazes me how blue the ice can get in a glacier. I have a photo of an ice cave and the color does not look real. Excellent capture and very well done!!....Denny #6406201Terry L. Ellis March 08, 2009
The color and composition are beautiful, Songbird. I've been there and that's the exact color. #7260295Jeff Robinson September 28, 2009
Wow - Portage sure has changed a lot since I was there last (1988)!! You have captured Alaska Beautifully! Jeff #7991937Christine Lobsinger July 26, 2010
WOW SONGBIRD, thank you for standing out in the rain... again, this is unbelievable!!! I would love to go to Alaska... and on a cruise too!Songbird Cline July 26, 2010
I f you ever do go to Alaska.. be sure to take the land trip after the cruise... Alaska is all about the interior..Its amazing and you can only see a tiny fraction from the ship... My son lives there so Im lucky to have a home base. #8788360Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
