Provided for this Friday:

Because of these pictures that you posted 1northcoin, I ended up going and watched this movie on netflix. It was a pretty good movie, thank you for posting pictures of it and the others or I probably would never had seen this movie, I liked it a lot. Thank you for posting all of these nice pictures that you post, I enjoy looking at them.

Having just seen the Drew Barrymore/John Krasinski movie "Big Miracle" here are a few making the movie photos that may be of added interest.

First, a closer up shot of the actors on The Ice Field Set as viewed from my office balcony during the filming:

A daytime scene on the Ice Field being filmed at one of the holes being kept open for the whales to breathe:

Snowmachines gather for a scene on the Ice Field Set.

Drew Barrymore walks alone as she takes in the reality that the baby whale "Bam Bam" is no longer surfacing:

Night filming of the animatronic whale on the Ice Field Set:

Ice Field Set filming with Drew Barrymore evident in her blue parka. John Krasinski and Kristin Bell appear to be the two actors on the far right in this early filmed scene while a building on the set was still under construction.

The actors gather in one of the closing scenes as they peer out toward the Russian Ice Breaker headed toward them to break the ice wall barrier. Again, Drew is easily identifiable in her blue parka and John Krasinski is positioned with her:

As this scene was being filmed one could hear the cast yelling from blocks away. They are cheering the freeing of the whales!

The earlier construction of the Ice Field Set including placement of the animatronic whales in water tight compartments over which the holes in the ice would be positioned:

And months later with ithe the film a wrap, Dismantling the Ice Field Set including removal of the animatronic whales:

Just came across this photo I took when the Ice Field Set was nearing completion. Above the set the pictured building is where my office was located.

The bottom one is a blue marble that was worn down in the surf and formed a flat edge.

The top one is a fluorescent orange vase filler polished in the surf.

Did you check to see if there was a pot of gold in the bush?

Do you think it's too late to check it now?
My wife says it's too late.
