    Very impressive capture, I can't estimate the height of the ice, I think it is very high. I like the blue colour of the ice and the "cool" mood ;-)

    Good to see you were wrapped up warm against the cold and your hat matches the ice behind you! How very considerate of you Adele!! That is a huge chunk that is about to cause a big splash. Amazing to see the layers of ice compacted.
    Hugs

    stunning!!! the textures and consistency of the icy cliff are like nothing else i've ever seen – at least not in nature. they do remind me just a little bit of a meringue, though ; ))… hugs, sabine. p.s.: great self, too, love how you, your light-blue head and penguin-shaped lense ; )), effortlessly blend in with the antarctic surroundings…
