Glacier Bay, Alaska: Nature's Display of Beauty and Power

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder," Plato once said. There is beauty in people, in your surroundings, and in the stars at night. There are many places on this planet that Mother Nature has given a special touch. Scenes that are so breathtaking that it makes you realize who you are, where you are at, and how small you are. There are places where all of your senses are awestruck with the surroundings, …

…power you have seen, felt, heard, tasted, and smelled. The beauty of the towering mountains in the distance, the glaciers, the old-growth forest, and the crystal clear water, is breathtaking. The teaming wildlife in and around the bay is truly awesome. There is so much life, warmth, and natural beauty in such an unforgiving place. It makes you truly realize how small you are compared to nature. You realize just how powerless you really are.
