I’ve noticed that many photographers darken the water to make the iceberg stand out more. I did it clumsily. If you brighten up the small icebergs nearby it should look even better.
Hi Ian, what an impressive sight! wonderful image! I very much like the aspect ratio, it fits the scene well and sets it apart from other images! I was wondering however if excluding the triangular shaped darker iceberg by cropping in a little bit from the right maybe would highlight the big Iceberg even more. Also it would exclude the darker cloud at the right edge of the frame. Just some thoughts. in any way it is a stunning image.
Beautiful image. It must have been stunning in person. My only problem with the photo is the white balance seems off to me. The sky seems too warm for the rest of the photo. Granted, I have never seen an iceberg in person and maybe your edit is really what it looked like. I tried my hand at editing it and moved the temperature slider more into the blue.
