Iceland keeps getting more epic. Some how that word isn't strong enough for the day I had. This is Jokularlon at sunset. The blue ice changes to white as the ancient glacial ice is exposed to sunlight and air. These glaciers will float out to sea within the day.
Ice Diamonds on black lava beach. One of the few places on earth to have both Ice Diamonds and black lave in tandem. The first two weeks of the Arctic Arts Project have been nothing short of epic. Iceland has provided the project with a profound sense of importance, revealing its dynamic presence in the earth's ever-changing story.
The blue ice is something to see as it passes you by on its way out to sea. Really beyond words
About 5k in our hike up the Tongues of Vatnajokull we came across this incredible ice field on the glacier. Also, did you know that moss actually grows on stones that not only don't roll, but are found on a glacier? Watch for the images.
This region of Iceland is nothing short of epic. Colors of minerals and vegetation nothing like I’d ever seen. A volcanist’s paradise, or more specific an artist’s. This ever changing landscape blends volcanic evolution, with extreme elements and forces of nature, to provide a visual playground to all who venture here.
Glymur Foss, a 1500 vertical climb from the basin floor though basalt and lava fields to reach the top. Breath taking to say the least. Lots of cold rain, but then - that is what makes it so green. The river basins and deltas flowing from Icelands largest glaciers makes for incredible art. The suspended minerals and radiant ice blue waters transcend the imagination of what is actually being seen.
