'Calving' glacier:

A spectacular sight to behold.

'On May 28, 2008, Adam LeWinter and Director Jeff Orlowski filmed a historic breakup at the Ilulissat Glacier in Western Greenland. The calving event lasted for 75 minutes and the glacier retreated a full mile across a calving face three miles wide. The height of the ice is about 3,000 feet [900m], 300-400 feet [100m] above water and the rest below water.'

Please excuse this gratuitous post if you are on some sort of PDA, or have slow connection. I really did try and edit, but it was hard.
