Photo Essay, Melting Iceberg

Melting Iceberg

• The last picture of the water streaming from the melting iceberg. The picture shows the iceberg from a side angle and shows the water melting off into an ocean. The light blue turning into white sky in the background has one cloud in it. Then ocean water is dark blue, in comparison of the white iceberg and bright blue sky. This picture is so effective because the way the sun glisten on the snow that eventually causes the beautiful white iceberg to melt into water. The ideas that come with this picture for me is that it looks as if it is the beginning of summer because there is still an iceberg but it is slowly getting hotter in Greenland to where the ice begins to melt.

• The most powerful part of the writing was "Glaciers are melting worldwide, from the Andes to the Alps to the snow of Kilimanjaro; many are expected to vanish entirely within thirty to forty years, and the oceans to rise several feet, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, representing a consensus of 2,000  scientist". This was effective because it shows the side effects of things that are happening to us. It is kind of crazy that we have these precautions.

• I think nature is something beautiful and I actually like wakening pictures of it myself. It is important because it is our surroundings and resources to many things.  The nature that means much to me is the sky, it is so beautiful.
