From a boat, I had been photographing mountain goats eating seaweed at thetideline when I heard the glacier crack. I quickly swung and startedshooting the calving glacier.

Gold Creek, Perserverance Trail, Juneau, Alaska – Image 2382

I shot this photo in the October of 2003. Usually the fall in Juneau is nothing but pouring rain. Last October we had two weeks of sunshine.
