Evening among the Icebergs

Evening among the Icebergs
Iceford stretches for 40km from Sermeq Kujalleq glacier to Disko Bay. The glacier is exceedingly productive, it has a flow rate of about 20m per day! Near the fjord's end large icebergs get stuck on an underwater moraine and gather near Ilulissat until they break up and float again.

Der Eisfjord erstreckt sich 40km weit vom Sermeq Kujalleq Gletscher bis zur Disko Bucht. Der Gletscher ist mit einer Fließgeschwindigkeit von ca. 20m am Tag außergewöhnlich produktiv. Am Ende des Fjords bleiben die großen Eisberge an einer Moränenschwelle stecken und sammeln sich bei Ilulissat an, bis sie auseinanderbrechen und wegschwimmen.

The snowy humps resemble someone sleeping. A dreamlike quality here, Gudrun, and superb light.

Gudrun club has replied to Amelia club
Thanks a lot, Amelia! It was rather cloudy but it looked all the better when some sun came out in between. The snowy humps are also icebergs, they will start cracking up eventually.

Gudrun club has replied to polytropos club
Danke,poly! Die Touri-Boote fahren nicht ohne Grund gegen Abend raus. 3 Stunden sind wir zwischen den Eisbergen rumgefahren und ich hätte mich dumm und dusslig fotografieren können.Als ich zurück ins Warme kam, war meine Kamera nicht nur beschlagen, sondern hat getropft;-)

nicht ungefährlich für die Knipse, Gudrun, vor allem, wenn du sofort damit ins Warme gehst!

Gudrun club has replied to Ruesterstaude club
Es hatte nur um die Null, da sollte eigentlich nichts passieren. Aber es war sehr luftfeucht... bei Minus 20 hätte ich einen Plastikbeutel dabeigehabt;-)

Another wonderful capture from this almost unknown land of ice and snow. I love this light that you have handled very well. Also love the lumpy peaks.

I heard yesterday that they expect all the snow and ice to melt of Iceland over the next century or less if things don't change quickly with our carbon output.

Best Wishes, Herb

Gudrun club has replied to Herb Riddle club
Thank you, Herb! This is the centre of Greenland's tourism, in summer it's crowded (that's why I chose to visit in September).
The forecasts for Iceland's glacier aren't good at all, Greenland's ice shield will last a bit longer because it so much bigger. If it melted totally most of Europe would be under water...
