Glacial Blues
Gerlache Strait & Lemaire Channel












Glacial Blues
The rugged structure and the intense blue glow emanating from within the ice never fail to captivate me. Shaped by time and pressure, glaciers unveil a mesmerizing complexity—towering walls, deep crevasses, and jagged ridges that appear sculpted by an unseen force. The luminous blue glow, trapped within ancient layers of compressed snow, seeps through cracks and fissures, creating a striking contrast against the pale, windswept surface. Each glacier tells a story of movement and transformation, shifting imperceptibly yet preserving within its crystalline depths the echoes of a frozen world.
