Just back from two weeks trekking in East Greenland. After a week on the mainland we crossed to Angmagssalik Island and were dropped off near this beach, strewn with stranded icebergs which had melted into all sorts of fantastic shapes. We had a great time among the most tremendous scenery and (mostly) good weather. The D70 performed faultlessly despite being cold and damp at times. Now sifting through 800 photos!

Wow, what a fabulous shot, it feels cold and warm at the same time ...if that makes any sense?

Superb image, really like the ice cool colours, like the view through the holes in the ice and the lighting is very effective.

Thanks for the comments folks.

John (shania) - yes it was a beach at the estuary of a river.

Jany, Anthony, borisv - just preparing some to put on my website, will let you know when they are posted (at least a week yet).

Flossie - "it feels cold and warm at the same time". Yes I know exactly what you mean! It got quite hot in the sunshine when there was no wind but as soon as a breeze sparang up I was piling on the layers as the air temperature was just a few degrees above freezing.

Great shot, love the colour of the ice and the lighting. You were certainly lucky with the weather.

Funny looking sand Vince!
Cracking shot - like it a lot. You use a polariser on this or not?

Cheers,
James
