Description
This is a piece of a glacier that has broken from Mendenhall glacier and floated across the lake at it's base, washing up on the opposite shoreline.
This ancient ice, millenia old, is so highly compressed that it melts much slower than the ice that forms around it each night, leaving it exposed and alone in the glacial-tinted waters each afternoon.
While walking the shoreline of the lake, the patterns within the ice would catch the light and reflect back a surreal, swirling light that I found fascinating.

A warning finger, or maybe the dainty finger of the Glacier Lady waiting for a suitably pure soul to slip a ring upon it. What a wonderful capture. I love the patterns, the swirling light, and the slight intrusions of darkness; together, they make this into a rich and dramatic piece of photographic art. Wonderfully done!
