Description This is of Aialik Glacier in Kenai Fjords National Park in Alaska. It is hard to get a sense of scale of the pieces but you can see a sea gull in the middle of the picture. Given the weight of ice the larger chunks falling (which are tiny compared to the glacier as whole) weigh somewhere between 300-500 pounds.
Chris Christensen, Anchorage Member Since June 2018 Artist Statement Why Adventure Images? I feel life should be an adventure and each of my pictures has a story behind how it came to be. My name is Chris and I have always had the eye and passion for creating art though pictures. In 2011 I purchased my first DSLR camera and pursued learning as much as I could to improve my re-found love for photography. I am originally from a small town in the middle of Nebraska. I lived in Dayton Ohio for 5 years but have called Anchorage Alaska my home since 2012. I served 10 years active duty U.S. Air Force and I am currently a member of the Alaska Air National Guard working in the IT sector.
