Wow, very nice shot. Is it the lens that gives you the ability to focus on everything in the shot? (im a newbee) help me out

Outstanding DOF.

 

If you don't mind me asking, as we get closer to Dec. 21, (the shortest day of the year) how many hours of sunlight are you getting up in Alaska? And when the sun is up doesn't it seem to travel along the horizon as seen in the photo or do you reach a point when you get nearly 24 hours of darkness?

The Next sunrise: 9:56 a.m. and the Next sunset: 3:44 p.m. Here in Anchorage on Dec. 21 the sun still makes an appearance for five hours. Total darkness only happens above the Arctic Circle, which is hundreds of miles north of Anchorage. This time of year the sun stays low on the horizon. It barely got above the mountain in the photo.

Thanks for the commnets.

This really gives me the sense that I am there...Brrrr. I love the roughness of the ice, and the reflection of light. Excellent...

The only suggestion I can think of right now is to crop from the right until the photo is square. This crop would eliminate the right side (which I don't really care for) and place the sun in the corner.
