Glacial Calving by Debra Martz
...........................
There you are, standing on the ship and admiring all the icy beauty around you! Thoughts like, "wow, it's so blue" "it's huge"... ...and then BOOM! The shotgun sound has you jumping but you are quickly informed it's just the sound that accompanies the process known as glacial calving when ice breaks away from the front of the glacier and into the water! I watched in awe at the sudden release of ice from the glacier! A sight and sound I will never forget.

Beautiful capture Debra! I have visited Hubbard Glacier. Your description of a shotgun sound when calving is exact. Your description is as perfect as the capture!

Wow, I opened your page to a wonderful Glacer and your story is riveting. The sound must have been shuttering as well. Great Photographic imagery, I will be back
