> I too was expecting some interesting experimental imagery where an entire iceberg was used as a lens,

it says made from an iceberg... as in from part of an iceberg... do you know how big an iceberg is?

I thought it might be something similar to the neutrino detector. Where they somehow used an iceberg to deflect and focus some kind of radiation. The actual article was obviously in a very different direction but cool too in its own right.
Exactly! It'd be different if the heading said "A Camera Lens Made from a Part of an Iceberg". But as it stands, I went in hopeful that an entire 'berg would be used in some creative or ingenious way.
