 Alaska has a lot of glaciers. Sadly many are receding at a fast pace. Global warming? I dunno - maybe just part of life's cycle.

I wish the white was a little whiter but this photo has quite a story behind it.

Cool shot! LOL! It does seem a little dark but I assume you were in it's shadow.

i;d love to see the white brought out more, looks a little too flat and grey for my taste.

A little dark - but clearly an interesting place.

This makes me think of an old tintype taken when gold was first discovered in Alaska, with the deeper highlight tones. COOL!!

Nice shot, very interesting ... I'd have been tempted with either hdr or the shadow/highlights tool to bring the details out a little

Not sure I like this so much - very dark and the gray really flattens it out. Feels like it has no punch.

Now this reminds me of a vintage newspaper photo. Pretty cool (pun intended). :)

I love the rugged look of this. It would be cool if you had an old photo of this to compare how much "shrinkage" there has been.
