Oasis amidst Chaos

Have you ever been in a blue ice cave? What an magical experience and beauty of the Nature

Oasis amidst Chaos

“Glaciers cover around 10% of Iceland. After 1890, most glaciers began to retreat and since the year 2000 the outlet glaciers have retreated exceptionally fast, and their mass loss is among the highest recorded in the world. Due to climate change the glaciers will continue to melt and retreat and they could lose half of their volume by 2100. After 200 years, only small ice caps will remain on the highest mountains."

The ice is so thick, dense, and old that it absorbs all colours of the spectrum except the colour blue, so that's the colour we see. Ice that's entirely free of white air bubbles appears to be the most blue.
