[font=Helvetica]This post is from our all-day boat tour at Glacier Bay National Park, our last new USA National Park on this trip. (That makes it 56 out of the 59 parks!). This day was one of the highlights of an amazing trip, and though the day started off very wet, it had[/font][font=Helvetica] [/font]cleared nicely a few hours into the trip, giving me many amazing scenes to capture ....I spent most of the day running around with 2 cameras around my neck...one with the big zoom lens, and the other for the overall scenes. We stopped at the John Hopkins Glacier[font=Helvetica] [/font][font=Helvetica]for quite a while and just listened to the silence, interspersed with the huge cracks of the ice calving off the front of the glacier. The last one we witnessed was the most epic....luckily the 2 seals in the lower left corner of this gives you an idea of the scale. [/font]

Nice landscape/action shot. The inclusion of seals is a definite plus. Very dramatic capture!
