  • Numerous icebergs float in Jökulsárlón, the Glacier Lagoon, in southeastern Iceland. Big chunks of ice break off from the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier and float in the lagoon until they melt or are carried by changing tides out to the Atlantic Ocean.

  • Several arctic terns (Sterna paradisaea) rest on icebergs floating in Iceland's Glacial Lagoon. Each year, it migrates farther than any other animal, summering in both the Arctic and in Antarctica.

  • A gull flies over an iceberg of blue ice in the glacial lagoon of Jökulsárlón in southern Iceland. The glacial lake is full of icebergs that have fallen from the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier.

  • A harbor seal (Phoca vitulina) swims among the towering icebergs in the glacial lagoon, Jökulsárlón, Iceland. The icebergs floating in the lake calved off from the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier with some of the ice being more than 1,000 years old. Jökulsárlón covers an area of about 18 square kilometers (6.9 square miles) and ranks as the deepest lake in Iceland.

  • An iceberg carries a rock though Jökulsárlón, Iceland's glacial lagoon. Glaciers have been known to carry rocks great distances. Rocks fall onto glaciers, which move slowly down mountains. When the glacier melts so much that it can no longer support the rock, the rock is dropped and it becomes known as a glacial erratic. The term referrs to rocks that are different in size, shape or composition from other rocks around them.

  • The Milky Way shines over the icebergs floating in Jökulsárlón, the glacial lagoon in southeast Iceland. The icebergs floating in the lake calved off from the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier with some of the ice being more than 1,000 years old. Jökulsárlón covers an area of about 18 square kilometers (6.9 square miles) and ranks as the deepest lake in Iceland.

  • A glassy iceberg comprised of ice believed to be more than 1,500 years old floats in Jökulsárlón, the glacier lagoon in southern Iceland. The oldest ice in the lagoon is almost like glass. Over time, the weight of ice and snow on top of it presses out any air. Without the obstruction of air pockets, blue wavelengths of light are able to penetrate deep into the iceberg, resulting in the blue color.

  • An arctic tern (Sterna paradisaea) rests on an iceberg floating in Jökulsárlón, the glacier lagoon in Iceland. Arctic Terns have the longest migration of any animal, flying an average of 44,300 miles (70,900 kilometers) each year. They summer in each hemisphere, breeding in the northern polar region during its summer and then flies to the edge of the Antarctic ice for the southern hemisphere summer.

  • A flock of arctic terns (Sterna paradisaea) rest on icebergs floating in Jökulsárlón, the glacier lagoon in Iceland. Arctic Terns have the longest migration of any animal, flying an average of 44,300 miles (70,900 kilometers) each year. They summer in each hemisphere, breeding in the northern polar region during its summer and then flies to the edge of the Antarctic ice for the southern hemisphere summer.

  • A window melts through a huge iceberg in Jökulsárlón, a glacial lagoon located in southern Iceland. Some of the ice in the lagoon is 1,500 years old. Over time, air has been pressed out of the ice, resulting in the blue color. Without air to reflect it, blue light is able to penetrate deep into the ice.
