Good shot!

But - just so that you know - the spelling is "Bergschrund"! :-)

dear, oh dear!

Really hope that the guy is still alive - judging by the technique and clothing he (and you?!) uses to cross a glacier.

Take care - and get some technical advice if you don't understand what I mean.

Re: dear, oh dear!

Well, truth be known, we were safer when this photo was taken (anchor, belay, awareness of crevasse existing) than climbers usually are when walking across a glacier (no fixed anchor, unexpected crevasses). Or driving in a car at 70mph, for that matter. =)

but

... the pictures are great, btw.

So, 10 out of 10, with regard to photographical skills.
