Silhouetted Glacier on Granite Wall at Sunset in near Sapporo

Silhouetted Glacier on Granite Wall at Sunset

by Alice Keith

A vast sheet of ice rests on the steep, north-facing granite wall, rendered as a stark black silhouette against the pale, endless summer sky. The sun sits low behind the mountain, casting the rock face into deep shadow while the horizon glows with a soft, milky light. Low-hanging clouds drift across the upper frame, their edges blurred and gray, merging with the dark mass of the glacier. The texture of the granite appears rough and fractured where the ice does not cover it. Below, the foreground fades into darkness, showing the sheer vertical scale of the hanging ice. at the edge is the jagged, irregular edge where the glacier meets the rock, a sharp line against the glowing atmosphere.
