Path of the Glacier

Wonderful mountain scape. I guess it took a lot of crampon kicking to get there.... or a helicopter and great pulse for aerials.
Great work, one of the best mountain scenes posted lately.

Lovely classic Mountain scene.

Beautiful Image, Well done!

Oh boy what a wonderful snowy mountainscape. Must of have been great to see. Were you trekking up there? Sunrise/sunset shots??

That is one stunning mountain scene and you know I have no need or desire to see this at sunset or sunrise as for me it is stunning as is. This is one of the most transparently processed images that I have ever seen on NPN.

Good that it's not a sunrise/sunset shot - are we not tired of them? Very well done image with masterly managed light and comp

Very beautiful image I specially like how the light changes subtly across the frame.

Stunning image, great shot.

Awesome!!! I assume you stayed at a hut up there? That's one thing I wanted to do during my trip there but never got a chance to. Anyhow, great scene, great comp.

Neat shot, KK. Does not look like a place I'd want to be walking around!

Excellent shot, great job on such a difficult color, detail and clarity on the larger image is a pleasure to view.

Great image... Kah... beautiful foreground, great mountains in the distance... nothing can beat that!

The foreground is insane!

stunning alpine scenery and the image has a very crisp and clean feel to it. the cracks in the fg add a nice touch to the comp as well.

crisp mountain scene.

Just great! The foreground is ....yes...insane. Ditto. You handled brights and darks in f/g so well. Applause.

Wow! One of the more impressive mountain scenes I have seen....

Tell us more.

Scary! But gorgeous as well. I too would be nervous to walk around out there. As for the scene, it's really beautiful. I think the fact that there isn't any spectacular early/late light and color, only speak more to the beauty of the place.

Very beautiful!! Crisp and clean, just gorgeous. Amazing capture. Wish to see these mountains one day... Love it!!!

New Zealand is definitely on my trip list before i die. This is a stuning scene Kah Kit, i don´t know if it´s croped but the composition is just perfect for me. Those cracks on the ice are really photogenic. Cheers

crisp and cold, lovely light - another great shot Kah Kit

so sweet! definitely a difficult exposure perfectly executed.
been up there, too, but have to confess we did it with a helicopter...
it'll be some time until we will be back in NZ, so I really enjoy seeing fresh pics from there!

Beautiful capture, wonderful light and details. The clarity here is stunning. Nice work.

Reminds me of a book title, "Hell I Was There" by Elmer Keith.

You were there and I envy your ability to "be there".

The composition is great. The texture is the key to this photo as is the general ambiance.

Good eye and thanks for sharing.

Stunning scenery!

Stunning and refreshing Kah Kit. Beautiful work!

The crevasse structure really does a wonderful job of guiding the eye through this image and although much of the image is very cool toned, the bits of warm rock break up the image well.

I love that you show us this scene without a pink/blue/purple/orange sky! This is sublime as presented!

Beautifully done again Kah Kit. What a scene

Amazing...

Great composition, Kah Kit. What I like most about this is the clarity and definition of those fissures as well as how they lead the eye through the scene.
