ALL 2013 National Geographic Traveler Photo Contest – in HIGH RESOLUTION. Part 6: Week 12

“Last bits of berg B15”. The Hans Hansson, a 27-meter Antarctic expedition ship, approaches a small piece of iceberg B15 off the coast of South Georgia Island. Originally over 11,000 square kilometers and one of the largest icebergs ever recorded, berg B15 calved off the Ross Iceshelf in 2000 and has been melting ever since. Our captain estimated this piece to tower more than 100 meters above the ocean surface, but as much as 90% of an iceberg's volume is below the water!
