Feeling the Chill

It's a bit chilly here in the northeast  but certainly not as chilly as where these photos are from.  These are some Artic aerial photos taken from the National Geographic website. 

1.  Red Glacier, Alaska - Bergs and boulders form islands of ice and rock in the basin of the glacier.

2.  Neacola River, Alaska - Sunlight sparkles along the river’s banks and its tidal flats.

3.  Langøya Island, Norway - Industrial by-products form a swirling palette at a waste-treatment facility on this island south of Oslo. 
4.  Clam Gulch, Alaska - A clam digger pokes away in search of supper along Cook Inlet.
5.  Bay of Bothnia, Sweden - Recycling pools beside a lumber facility near the port city of Karlsborg pock the landscape like shots through tempered glass.
6.  Enontekiö, Finland - Snowmobile tracks quarter the surface of a frozen pond in the province of Lapland.

Wishing you all a warm, safe, happy holiday!
