The Iceberg’s Underbelly
At least this photo doesn’t bring to mind thoughts of what rests below the depths of the ocean. Instead, it gives a vivid depiction of what the conditions look like underneath the thick sheets of ice found in glacial areas. That’s how icebergs look when they are floating around in the water and simply put, it’s one of nature’s greatest paintings.
Tobias Friedrich snapped the iceberg’s underbelly in 2012 during a plunge into the Tasiilaq Fjord, found in southeast Greenland. In 2019 he braved the frozen waters for a third time to take more photos. This particular picture earned him accolades during the 8th Ocean Art Underwater Photo Contest.
