David's Images of the Day Photoblog
After spending an in-port “classroom day” in Stockholm, the MV Explorer departed at 17:30. I set up a couple of cameras to record images for a time-lapse video for our passage through the Stockholm archipelago. The music Semester at Sea Alma Mater “Off to Sea — The World” is by the voyage resident musician John M. Rosenberg.

Arctic Tern Fishing Frenzy. Breiðamerkurjökull Glacier at the Jökulsárlón Lagoon in Southeast Iceland. Image taken with a Nikon 1 V2 camera, FT1 adapter, and 80-400 mm VRII lens (ISO 400, 400 mm, f/16, 1/1000 sec).
I went back to Crystal Geyser in the morning since I didn’t see it erupt the previous evening. The interesting thing about Crystal Geyser is that it is a cold geyser, powered by carbon dioxide. I did see a minor eruption, then hit the road for Great Basin National Park in Utah. I arrived at the Lehman Caves visitor center just in time for the final tour of the day.
