Amazing icebergs

• Amazing icebergs

Icebergs - a block of ice, broken away from the ice sheets and ice shelves. Most of the icebergs formed by cleavage. Age icebergs can reach hundreds of thousands of years.

Some icebergs are formed due to the solid precipitation that falls over the years, and lie on the surface billions of snow crystals, which, like a mirror, reflecting sunlight. Others are derived from the frozen water. In the interior of glaciers contains a lot of air bubbles.

Beautiful blue stripes that decorate the surface of some icebergs are the result of re-freezing of melt water, which has already managed to fill all the old cracked iceberg. Ice surface absorbs sunlight, reflecting the blue waves. Peerless blue icebergs change the color saturation and hue depending on the angle of incidence of sunlight.

Perito Moreno Glacier. Perito Moreno - the most beautiful, most interesting, and, as a consequence - the most visited by tourists glacier in Argentina. This is another great place where "born" icebergs. This photo shows an iceberg on a background of black mountains.

Antarctica - a wonderful place, where the penguins live.

Blue Iceberg and Adelie penguins. This iceberg is made up of blue ice, which indicates that he has broken away from the deeper and more ancient parts of the Antarctic ice cap. This photo was taken in the northern part of the Weddell Sea in the Southern Ocean, near Antarctica during an expedition ANT-VIII / 3, from the deck of the German "POLARSTERN" research vessel.

Iceberg, located near Cape York, Greenland. All icebergs are beautiful in their own way and pass an incredible variety of shapes. Hole iceberg shown in the photo, formed as a result of environmental influences - wind, thawing and elution by the sea waves.
