Jokulsarlon Lagoon

Iceland

Icebergs that have broken off of Iceland's largest glacier float serenely at sunset in Jokulsarlon lagoon. But with the departing tides, these icebergs - ranging in size from large boulders to the size of a house - float out to the sea to be pummeled by the waves and destroyed by the salt. It is a deeply moving sight bearing witness to this inexorable process, and there is a strong sense that something is changing and passing away. Photo © copyright by Ed Fuhr.
