Stunning picture of an Iceberg

Ever seen an iceberg from the bottom?
This picture was taken by a rig manager drilling off St. John's, Newfoundland.
They have to divert these icebergs away from the rigs and usually tow them away with ships. With this particular iceberg the water was calm and the sun was directly overhead and so a diver was able to get into the water and snag this picture with an underwater camera, they estimated that this piece of ice weighed about 300,000,000 tons!
