Glacier front with blue ice, Svalbard
Year:
2011
Taken by:
Peter Prokosch
Glacial ice appears blue under immense pressure. Snow falling onto ice is compressed as the glacier winds its way through valleys, to a body of water (river, lake, ocean etc.) During its travels, air bubbles trapped in the ice are squeezed out by the pressure and the ice appears blue.
