Eqip Sermia Glacier, North of Ilulissat, Greenland
A glacier is a persistent body of dense ice that is constantly moving under its own weight; it forms where the accumulation of snow exceeds its ablation (melting and sublimation) over many years, often centuries. Glaciers slowly deform and flow due to stresses induced by their weight, creating crevasses, seracs, and other distinguishing features. They also abrade rock and debris from their substrate to create landforms such as cirques and moraines. Glaciers form only on land and are distinct from the much thinner sea ice and lake ice that form on the surface of bodies of water

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the majestic beauty of Eqip Sermia Glacier, located north of Ilulissat in Greenland. The glacier, a persistent body of dense ice, is constantly in motion under its own weight. Over many years, even centuries, the accumulation of snow exceeds its melting and sublimation rate, resulting in this breathtaking natural wonder. As glaciers slowly deform and flow due to their immense weight, they create unique features such as crevasses and seracs. These distinguishing characteristics add to the allure and grandeur of Eqip Sermia Glacier. Additionally, through abrasion against rock and debris on their substrate, glaciers shape remarkable landforms like cirques and moraines. Unlike sea ice or lake ice that forms on bodies of water's surface, glaciers exclusively form on land. This differentiation makes them truly exceptional phenomena to witness firsthand. In this image captured by Danita Delimont for Fine Art Storehouse's collection, we are transported to a world frozen in time. Bathed in sunlight during a crisp day outdoors amidst cold temperatures lies this awe-inspiring expanse of ice. With no human presence visible within the frame but nature at its purest form showcased horizontally before us - it invites contemplation about our planet's incredible wonders
