Description

A detailed aerial landscape photograph shows a blue-white glacier edge with dense ridges, cracks, and surface grooves. Dark, sediment-laden meltwater channels branch below the uneven ice margin near Bear Creek in Yukon, Canada.

Story

The upper frame is filled with blue-white glacial ice marked by ridges, cracks, grooves, and layered textures. Below the uneven ice margin, dark gray water and sediment form winding braided channels with exposed gravel bars and small ice fragments. Captured in autumn on 15 September 2016, the elevated oblique perspective gives the scene a detailed, abstract landscape quality.
