Description
Ice calving, also known as glacier calving or iceberg calving, is the breaking off of chunks of ice at the edge of a glacier.
My lucky shot :)
I caught the ice as it was breaking off and falling into the water. It was pretty awesome. First you would hear this extremely loud boom or cracking sound, and the piece would slide off into the water.
I am running my first Half Marathon Sunday.. wish me luck to finish :) I have been training all year, and it is going to be a cold, cold run. I am not used to running in the cold :/
Hugs,

Superb shot!
Nice ice, and zoom helps though larger would be even better. Good luck on the half-marathon! My good buddy and I shared an office many years ago when his waistline was 52" and mine was 42". He since started walking great distances then went to running and a half marathon and now has done several full marathons. His waistline is now around 38" while mine is still 42" and he is so much more healthier than he was previously! More power to you Melinda!
A sign of global warming? Beautiful bluish ice colors. Aloha
Excellent Melinda, I didn't know the term for it breaking off. Thanks for that info. And good luck with the HM. I have never been a runner, not even for a bus LOL! But I do know that your body will warm up and you shouldn't feel the cold after a while. Actually, you should have your camera ready at the finish and grab some shots of runners steaming LOL
All the best with the marathon Melinda. Superb capture. God bless.
Excellent capture.
Great capture - good luck on your run!
Gorgeous colors and textures in this excellent capture! You were very lucky to see this calving!
