Portage Glacier #unleash

0 comments

 

Portage Glacier, in the Chugach NF near Whittier, was once one of Alaska's most easily viewed glaciers through the windows of the Begich, Boggs Visitor Center. Rapid recession of the glacier has left a large lake in its wake and the terminus is now no longer visible from the visitor center. Visitors can view the glacier on cruise boats leaving from the visitor center, or, as I did, hike over from Whittier via Portage Pass. EF 28-70mm @ 70mm; f/20 @ 1/160 sec, ISO 400; Auto exposure, AB mode; Centerwieghted-average metering; Auto WB

    Here goes

    I've been meaning to do a first post for a while. Thanks to Ian et al for getting this rolling, i hope it will be a first rate location to learn, be inspired and share so we all grow and develop in our shared passion :) Below is an image of Buacheille Etive Mor - a lump of rock at the entrance to Glens Coe and Etive. It has a charisma most mountains lack. I wanted to portray its resistance to everything thrown at it - it is shot thousands of times a year, but often with adornments and additions from the surrounding landscape. On this day I felt it owned the image all by itself. So, critique and comments are more than welcome. thanks for viewing

    Hi Ian/everyone, this is my first time posting in this forum. This image was taken in South Island NZ for a morning sunrise.
