One for all you camera buffs.

I bet you all wish you had a camera as good as this one!
The link can be a bit slow to load, but worth the wait, use the controls to zoom in and out plus pan left and right. After being amazed at the panorama, zoom in on the lower part of the glacier at the tiny yellow dots and then follow it upwards on the lower left side, if you look really close you can even see people actually on the glacier, (follow the snow trails) a truly amazing picture.

That is amazing !!! can hardly believe how many yellow tents etc are set up there .

[Horus]

It is unbelievable how many people are actually up there, did you spot the people on the glacier? Just to the right of the shadow cast onto the glacier by the mountain.
Also found out that my mouse scroller button works to zoom in and out and the pointer will pan it left or right, give yours a try.

Doesn't it make your blood run cold just to look at it? It does mine! I hate heights and snow! Reminds me of something I watched on the PC back in 1999, which was a live webcam of an Everest climb. It was snowing a blizzard and the climbers were crossing a very deep glacier by means of a rope ladder! Put me off for life!

Take a close look at the white area imediately above the glacier in the 'Vee' formed by the two peaks on either side.

Yip! my mouse was zooming in & out & left - right, up & down, I saw the people & its amazing to see all the layers & patterns made by the snow.

There are even tents up there on more than one level! I can zoom in even closer via my touchpad. This is amazing... thanks, H!

I have flown over the Fox Glacier in the South Island of New Zealand..... one of the best things I have ever done. A mind-blowing experience, especially when the pilot flew over the waterfall that was going through a hole in the side of the glacier, then running under it, and I was in the front seat! When we flew back, he went closer to the surface and as the glacier was a bit like a giant staircase, each time we came to the edge of a "step", it was like going over a waterfall in a raft. Felt like being on a roller-coaster ride. Woo hoo! The colour of the crevasses is the prettiest blue, and the whole glacier is streaked with the brown of the moraine. The force needed to create that is mind-boggling.

Put it on your Bucket List, folks! I am so thankful, as we 5 were the only ones on our tour who got to do it before the rain came. Unfortunately the weather deteriorated more overnight, so the planned walk on it the next morning was cancelled.

That sounded like a really special once in a lifetime flight WI
