stuny Posted February 13, 2012 Share #1 Â Posted February 13, 2012 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm told the blue in glacial ice is due to the huge forces of compression. The patterns are due to erosian by wind and water. As ice bergs erode and melt it's not unusual for them to flip over, exposing more forces of natire upon them. the patterns remind me of SLit Canyon in the US Southwest. Â I shot both of these from a Zodiac in the Weddell Sea. Visit our site to see many more shots from Antarctica.

pauledell Posted February 13, 2012 Share #2 Â Posted February 13, 2012 Stuart, Â Both are gorgeous shots with the lovely blue color, sharpness and the composition. I would be inclined to crop out the ground at the bottom of the second picture. Â Paul Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
