Iceberg in the Arm

Iceberg in the Arm
This small iceberg has been hanging around the Arm for a month,

drifting around, getting caught up on rocks, melting a bit, turning

over, losing bits . . . just generally bobbing around. And melting. On

Sunday morning (June 29th), when I took this picture, it was about 120

feet (35m) long at the waterline. Today it is much smaller because we

have had a lot of hot weather. Some of this berg is now in people's

freezers, including mine. It makes for entertaining ice cubes in

drinks since it is filled with pressurised air that spits and fizzles

as the ice melts.



This picture started as a RAW file in the Olympus E-P2. I'm not used

to working with RAW files and I hoped that I could get more detail in

the highlights than I have. I like the general picture here but for

those highlights.

I suspect my E-P2 sensor is not a really good one. I've been weighing up in my mind for a couple of months whether I should buy an OM-D m4/3 camera. I understand the sensor in them is somewhat improved from the E-P series, and over the past few years I have accumulated a string of m4/3 leneses that would fit it. I like the idea of a built-in viewfinder -- my E-P2 has the VF-2 finder but that tends to fall off so I often do not attach it!
