Atmospheric Optics Over Black offers Rapids Glacier - 5"x10" Float Metal Print

I photographed this awesome sight while doing field work out on the Black Rapids Glacier in the eastern Alaska Range. The view is to the southeast and you can see the Loket Tributary flowing into the main branch of the glacier center right. Living in Fairbanks (a little under 100 miles north of here) we get to see a lot of optical phenomena from ice in the atmosphere. In the winter we frequently see halos and parhelia (sun dogs). It's pretty rare to see the tangent arc and even rarer to see a parhelic circle – the line that offers continues ‘horizontally' from the sundog. At times this made a full 360° circle around our heads from camp. The stitching together of this 14 image panorama was not fun and it isn't perfect, but I think it came out nice enough.

What I'm selling in stock now:
One 5"x10" Float Metal Print. My Float Metal Prints are made by Bay Photo Lab in Scotts Valley, CA. Metal Prints are dye infused aluminum for a durable, waterproof, scratch resistant and vibrant print. The print corners are rounded and the print is ready to hang with a 3/4" plate with drilled sawtooth hanger.
