Thanks Everyone Very Much!! Jeff #7917094frank w. degenhardt September 05, 2009
Jeff- This is one of those sights that are both eerie and beautiful at the same time. I love both versions and while I am a big fan of black and white, I must admit I loved the blue toned one a bit better. The glow of the light is gorgeous, the combination of water and snowy ice along with the rock formation is so beautiful and breathtaking. Fantastic camera work with outstanding compositon, a rare beauty my friend.Susie Peek-Swint September 05, 2009
Beautiful shot Jeff ~ I love both images but lean towards that beautiful glacial of the first one posted :) #7917823Eugenio Diaz September 05, 2009

Wow....must have beem quite a sight! #7919469Mitch Spence September 06, 2009
An imposing sight, Jeff. I didn't get to see this when I was there and wish I had. I like both images, but I think I prefer the color version. There's something about the blue tones of the ice in Alaska that adds that just right feeling of chill. #7919814Marijana Fajgl September 06, 2009
Wonderful captures, Jeff! I love them both. #7920328Kirsten Kiki Kjaer September 07, 2009

Beautiful capture from the archives. A real chilling capture, Jeff. #7929461Laura E. Swan September 09, 2009
WOW! What a strange feeling the B&W gave me...like being closed in...but I really like it a lot. Both of them, Jeff. They have a wonderful drama about them. Mystique...Like I want to be there but am glad I am not.Did I explain that very well? Humm...
Very National Geographic anyway. GREAT JOB!

A smashing capture of an extraordinary place, Jeff! Both versions have their charms, though I'd give the slight edge to the B&W ... #7954764Kay Beausoleil September 18, 2009
