The jewel-like interior of an ice cave beckons adventurers on Iceland’s Vatnajökull glacier. that melted billions of gallons of ice and triggered a flood that lasted two days. The floodplain was littered with huge blocks of ice. Vatnajökull is the largest ice cap in Europe, around 3,100 km³ constanly changing it’s formation. The texture on the “floor” is snow mixed with volcanic ash from Grímsvötn, the latest erupting volcano in Iceland, erupting in may 2011. The beautiful pictures are made by Skarphéðinn Þráinsson.
