Image Information

Blue Iceberg Picture (ID: 177)

Print Title: Sculpted Iceberg

Greeting Card Caption: This very large iceberg calved from a tidewater glacier in Alaska. Icebergs are blue because the red part of white light (long wavelengths) is absorbed by ice and the blue light (short wavelengths) is transmitted and scattered. Most of the glacier ice in Alaska is less than 100 years old.
