I recently finished a book that was really like an adventure story called Looking for Alaska by Peter Jenkins. He spent a couple of years in Alaska meeting old time Alaskans. It was a fascinating book. My exploration wasn't quite adventurous from a cruise ship, but it did give me some wonderful memories. After reading the book, I was inspired to go back to my pictures of my own time there, and the pictures of the crevices in the glacier really resonated for me. As my sister said, "You think of a glacier being pure white (especially when seen from a far), but they are covered with little rocks right up to the crevices." The contrast of the white with the beautiful blues and turquoise of the water is striking.
