又想睡了，不過很燠熱，來看37㜈冰河、冰山照片，就可以清涼入夢！

Icebergs Photography:

我曾經北到阿拉斯加，南到紐西蘭，有幸見到冰河．冰山，才發現人類之渺小，然而人類所造成的災害卻使得這些上帝賜予的美景，正因地球暖化而消失當中，這裡蒐集了37張照片，都是人間極品，不看可惜。另外，如果把撿拾一塊冰河的冰塊來下酒，那冰塊由於是空氣直接凝結而成和實際體積看起來的重量輕很多，而且不容易融化，可以喝好多杯！

Icebergs are large pieces of ice that broke off from a snow-formed glacier or an iceshelf. Where a glacier meets the sea, humongous chunks of ice break off from the face of the glacier; this is known as “calving” and this is how many icebergs are “born.” Old icebergs may be hundreds of thousands of years old. Many years of falling snow, consisting of snow crystals by the countless billions, act like tiny mirrors and reflect the light. Some icebergs are also formed by freezing ocean water instead of snow and those areas are full of tiny air bubbles. Beautiful bluish streaks that appear in some icebergs are caused by the refreezing of meltwater that previously filled very old glacier ice crevasses. The very dense, very old ice captures the sun’s light and allows only the high-energy blue wavelengths to escape. The beautiful blue icebergs change color and intensity according to the position of the sun.[ 37 Pictures]

River runs under the ice

The photographer notes, “This river came out from under the glacier. The compact blue ice in the background was lit up by the pure sunlight.” Matthew Hoelscher

Blue iceberg with Adelie penguins

Photographer noted, iceberg with a resting group of Adelie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae); the iceberg consists of blue ice, indicating that this is very old ice from deeper parts of the Antarctic ice sheet. Image was taken in the northern part of the Weddell Sea, Southern Ocean, Antarctica during expedition ANT-VIII/3 of the german research vessel POLARSTERN. Hannes Grobe

Iceberg with a hole

Photographer noted, “Icebergs around Cape York,Greenland. The icebergs are beautiful and display many interesting shapes. You could see the iceberg with a hole at the image. The hole was caused by weathering effects – erosion by waves, wind and melting.”Mila Zinkova
