The image 962 is important in the context of the whole series because it is probably one of the very few that give you at least a faint idea of the enormous size of the glacier. My own experience as a tourist in the Calafate area convinces me that you’ll enjoy your trip to Antarctica, Paul (which is still quite a bit «further down», though, from where I was). Thanks for your friendly comment! — db.

There are many great glacier photos on your site. I especially love 985 and 962. I'm considering a trip to Antarctica next year; you've definitely inspired me to go.

Thanks a lot, kiki_2, for your compliment (and your votes...). I do appreciate your taking the time to take a closer look. — db.

What they say is true.. this is intensely delicate. I just went along to your gallery and voted like mad - full of enthusiasm - till I discovered I was logged in as clsr_challenge :P Mentioning this here just in case anyone tries the same stunt and wonders why "you have already voted for this picture".

You really make me blush, jnconradie and elips: many thanks for your kind words! To better «fathom how high and how impressive» this glacier is, jnconradie, or just because you seem to like glacier-images, Sharon, have a look at my whole series of images of the «Perito Moreno»:http://www.pbase.com/bollag/pampa_patagonia — db.

This is fabulous! One of the best glacier shots I have ever seen! ~Sharon

It is difficult to fathom how high and how impressive a 230ft wall of ice must be! Three layers in your picture, each containing water in a different state... impressive work. Regards jnconradie
