There was a moraine in Kennicott that was really sort of
surreal. Just to let you know, I did not
do anything special or different to the following images – this is truly the
way it looked!
The moraine is the brown area in the foreground of the
image. It is basically dirt and debris
from the glacier that has made its way to the surface. Underneath the brown is the white snow/ice of
the glacier. I found the moraine to look
sort of like a painting, even in reality!
I love the partial shell of an old building in the
foreground of this image. There’s an
interesting layer of texture – the rough of the building, smoother greenery,
then the ruggedness of the moraine, then the rolling smooth surface of the pine
trees in the foothills of the mountains, and then, finally, the rough mountain
tops.
Finally, I like this image for putting things into
perspective. Imagine living in a town
that not only looks out toward the mountains, but has a glacier in
between! You can actually see some of
the glacial snow in patches toward the back of the moraine.
Enjoy!
