AT THE TURQUOISE LAKE
AERIAL PHOTO SERIES ABOUT GLACIER LAKES
DEEP IN THE HIGHLANDS OF ICELAND
Like the only color in the entire universe, these glacier lakes are often located close to huge icecaps. I've found these vivid phenomenons while I scanned through the Highlands of Iceland for river patterns and new photo locations on Google Earth. To reach this location we had to drive 5 hours on extremely tough terrain, and we even had to cross River Tungnaá by foot - so we timed our arrival to be at the riverbed in the morning so we could "easily" walk through the running water. This location was on my to-do list for a very long time and it was amazing to share this experience with my fellow photographer Thráinn Kolbeinsson. Behind the scenes photo by him.
