Is that really, real ?
Absolutely astounding if it is !

It's an awesome picture, but unfortunately not real.  It's actually been put together using two different images of surface icebergs, one of them flipped upside down, and then another image layered over that one, to make it look like it's underwater.  The size/scaling is all correct though, and is how an iceberg would look if it could be viewed from that perspective.

Thought there was something that didn't look quite right.

Thanks Leon. Perhaps I should have put my glasses on first!  :(

Correct or not, it's still a fraud. Particularly as it's presented as fact.  =)
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.

True, but it's still a cool picture, put together long before Photoshop was so common!  I don't think there are many photo's left which haven't been tampered with in some way, even ones you regularly see in national competitions have usually been fiddled and tweaked to get them just right.

Now if you want a *powerful* iceberg image, this is my favorite
