SHANGRALA'S
WAVE
FROZEN
IN
TIME!
Welcome! Come on in! This Wave Frozen In Time is simply amazing. It reminds me of
something right our of the pages of Twilight Zone!
The photographer, astrophysicist Tony Travouillon, took these pictures near the
Antarctic coastal base of Dumont D'Urville in 2002.
The phenomenon captured in the images, Travouillon says, is called a blue iceberg.
The ice is bluish because it is denser and contains fewer air bubbles than the more
reflective white ice visible nearby. The tinting can be the result of an accumulation
of marine (saltwater) ice on the bottom of a floe which has tipped over, revealing its
translucent, polished underside, Travouillon explains. Or, according to other sources,
it can be the result of an iceberg partially melting and refreezing. Still other sources
cite as a possible cause the extreme compression undergone by ice originating from deep
inside a glacial mass.
The "blue bergs" of Antarctica are gorgeous natural phenomena. Part of God's Ooos and Awws
He created for us in this world to enjoy and wonder about and give Him praise for.
Here Are Some Dazzling Photos. Enjoy! :)
