Discover #2

I've made a single trip into the incomparable Taku River valley, and it left me aching for more. With multiple glaciers emptying into the valley and some wide open (animal friendly) habitat, there's so much wildness to explore just a few miles south by boat or float-plane from downtown Juneau (somewhat inaccessible due to the shallow river).

WOW. :toast:
Not only did you find some great subject matter, you did a fabulous job on this. Honestly Kent, no one else can do glacier ice like you can! I cannot figure out how you make even the dirt in the ice look good!!!!! Every time I photograph glacier ice, it just looks dirty.
Great image, and the sense of scale is impressive. :smile:
