Hello and welcome!
This is my first entry here in my photo blog. I'm going to try to get this updated twice a week to keep a nice, steady stream of photos going. If you like the pictures or want to give me some suggestions please comment or send me an email! And now onto the photography.
This picture was taken from a helicopter over the Fox Glacier on the South Island of New Zealand. During the last ice age the glacier was so large that it reached out further than the coastline. Lake Matheson, nearby was formed by it's retreat since that time. Fox glacier was named after Sir William Fox, the Prime Minister of New Zealand from 1869-1872. Along with the nearby Franz Josef glacier, it descends from the Southern Alps into the rainforests below. Something that isn't true of many other glaciers in the world.
