Vatnajökull from Cape Ingólfshöfði, Iceland

Medium fine art print: 13" x 4.6"
Price: €59  
Large fine art print: 36" x 13"
Price: €199  

Description:
This image really conveys the immensity of the Vatnajökull glacier. It is the largest glacier in Europe, covering 8% of the landmass of Iceland. Classified as an ice-cap glacier, it is a little brother to the continent-spanning icecap of Antarctica and the icecap of Greenland.

It is so tall that the tallest mountain on Iceland - Öræfajökull (2,110 meters or 6,920 feet) - barely pokes above its surface. In places the ice is as deep as 1,000 meters.
