Description:
Framed handtinted photo of view of Muir Glacier, Glacier Bay National Park; taken from moving boat, obvious from blurred ice filled water in foreground. Water extends to base of glacier, (tide water glacier) w/ rocky outcroppings extending out from either side. Blue tint on ice appears haphazard — not true to nature. Matted in black, framed in gold painted wood.
