After over a thousand years, deep blue glacial ice, tortured and stress fractured comes close to finishing its journey from the Southern Patagonin Ice field to Argentino Lake. Hard to comprehend the scale here but at its terminus the Perito Moreno Glacier has an average thickness of 170m (558ft); the contorted ripples on the surface are between 30 and 60 m (98 and 195 ft) high. This shot was taken at the peak of the midday sun. The extreme brightness of the ice, capable of causing snow blindness in a short period of time, has silhouetted out the sky. With a total area of 12,363 km2 (4,773 sq mi) of ice the Southern Patagonian Icefield is the third largest body of fresh water in the world (after the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets). With the planet warming up, the ice sheet is melting at an alarming rate and has retreated over 10km since the late 19th century. Argentina

I'm always amazed what works of art nature creates. This is a small river below the Kronberg in Switzerland.

Autumn rain has passed, and a puddle has formed. The sunny leaves fell and decorated the watery surface. The water looked amazing, as if goldfish were swimming in it.

The beauty of the sea in a mesmerizing landscape.
The waterfall of the fairy. Kythira island Greece. A name that suits the place!

The beautiful Puget Sound in Seattle on a sunny day in January!
Taken on a rather cloudy winter day - I liked the overall atmosphere around that lake, everything looked so gloomy in that light...

This is a flooded copper mine where, now, there's a crystal clear lake. It is beautiful, but scary to look at the lake edge and see how deep and dark it becomes, almost 150 m deep.
Sunset in El Nido, a small fishing village in the island of Palawan, Philippines, nestled between the Sulu sea and South China sea. El Nido is popular for being the gateway to the Bacuit archipelago, a group of islands with picturesque, steep karst cliffs and the most beautiful turquoise waters full of life.
