The day after Hurricane Sandy… a view of Manhattan from Brooklyn, shot today during our walk around the neighborhood. Prayers to everyone who is suffering from this wicked storm.

James Balog and the Extreme Ice Survey were featured in a one-hour documentary on NOVA/PBS on March 24, 2009. The film follows James as he photographs spectacular landscapes in Alaska, Greenland, and Iceland and, with his team, collects images from his time-lapse cameras.

These photo are all stunning.  It was hard for me to just pick a few for my blog.  I can’t wait to see the documentary later this month.  Be sure to check out the gallery on the site.
