COMING SEPTEMBER 1: A whole new project! Southeast Alaska. I will be sharing this new work my website, here and also Instagram for the first time ever. Here enormous glacial ice cliffs in Alaska more than 100ft high break off (calve) and crash into the ocean waters below sending a 3 meter high surge thundering ahead. Both seals (often visible by the hundreds on the bergs) and sea birds love this area, likely for the fishing, and are found in nearly every image! I spent a week wilderness kayaking dozens of miles in these deep fiords, camping in nearby wilderness. I also take others to camp and see these places on my Alaska unique adventure tours, the trip of a lifetime, just ask anyone here! Every day we can use our bush planes, helicopters, boats, trucks, kayaks and plenty of hiking to get into new areas for photography, areas we won’t see anyone, and everything here is just bigger and better here! At this shot, it was all a matter of lighting. The face works for shooting between 11am and 12am, with splashes catching the light and blue face in angular shadows. 1/1000 second. F/18, ISO 200. The face drops a 100ft-high block of ice like this up to a dozen times an hour and fills a 30-mile long strait with ice bergs. Hope you enjoy. The new work is going to contain a lot of very different stuff, and new processing too!
