Iceberg Images

Here are a photograph and video clip of the first iceberg that I encountered on the passage from Cape Town to Fremantle.  The iceberg is 9-10 miles away because I altered course to avoid it.  I projected my track to the E had I not altered course and I would have passed 0.7 nm to its north.   However, good radar fixes taken 5 hours apart indicated that the iceberg was drifting exactly to the NE at 0.4 kts, so a collision would have been possible if not likely.
