If there is any one place that I long to return to it is Alaska.

There is an overwhelming amount of beauty to see there.

The small slice I was able to see there over a decade ago will live with me forever.

That is one of the many reasons I love photography.

Create memories you can take with you and live with forever.

Getting a close up look at a glacier is something that I will never forget.

I love the striking colors and textures in this image as the snow and ice mingle.

Photo details: Nikon D50. Nikon 70-300mm f/4-5.6. Focal length 300mm. ISO 200. 1/1000 sec. f/8.

Thank you for joining me on the blog today for a close up look at a glacier.
