From a composition point of view, not a strong entry, but from the subject matter, one of my absolute favorites for the journey.

I'm hoping it's received well for Free Study XIII!

Post Challenge: Several "dirty window" comments, but perhaps the voters didn't realize that was the rockfall in the distance, behind the berg!

I assume the background is some sort of large rock formation?

Great shot. Makes me feel a chill...

Don't get to see many icebergs. your processing really brings them out of the background. Good job

dirty window? There is too much noise in the sky.

I like the desaturation of the background. It makes the icebergs really stand out. Not so sure about the blotchiness of the sky, though.

The background in the sky seems strange to me...could just be the weather - I don't know. I like the photo...I'm assuming it was taken either early or late in the evening...I like the lighting and the color of the 'Bergs'.

looks like you may have shot this through a dirty window. shame, as it really is a gorgeous scene, and you've composed it nicely.
