Description

With much effort this zodiac driver pulls out of the water a huge diamond-shaped chunk of "black ice". Recently calved from a glacier, this black ice is many-many thousands of years old and crystal clear as the millennia have compressed and forced out all air bubbles. This chunk of ice came aboard ship, chilled our evening cocktails, and helped celebrate in the New Year!

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
