- Since these photos are all of ice, snow, and water, the exposure settings have captured impressive detailing in the ice of the iceberg, the clouds in the sky, and mountain like forms. The images are very sharp and capture a good sense of color in a setting that is mainly white. Alex Cornell took a series of photos while in Antarctica and was able to capture the underside of an iceberg which is normally not seen.
- Alex Cornell is a designer, filmmaker, and musician from San Francisco. In his series of images from a trip to Antarctica, he was able to capture warmth in a place that is freezing. His photos give off feelings of serenity, peacefulness, and silence while at the same time gives off so much color and life. In turn of just capturing the surrounding land, he was able to capture some of its inhabitants such as penguins and seals. For a filmmaker and designer, his photos still show talent and his understanding of how to work a camera.
- What caught my eye when viewing Alex's pictures were the ones of the flipped iceberg. We aren't used to seeing the undersides of icebergs and the intense coloring of the ice in some of them is so astonishing and almost looks fake. I also enjoyed the difference in the series of the lighting. Some actually allow me to feel cold based upon the gloomy and foggy sky, while others give off such warmth from the sunlight and blue skies.
