Franz Joseph glacier, New Zealand
Franz Joseph glacier. Close-up of crevasses in the surface of the Upper Franz Joseph glacier, New Zealand. Crevasses form in glaciers as the ice cracks when the glacier moves. The stresses put on the ice as it flows down the mountain cause cracks like these to appear and disappear over time. Some crevasses can be extremely deep. Photographed in the Westland National Park, Southern Alps, South Island, New Zealand

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring beauty of Franz Joseph Glacier in New Zealand. The close-up view reveals a mesmerizing network of crevasses etched into the surface of the Upper Franz Joseph glacier, showcasing nature's remarkable artistry. Glaciers are constantly on the move, and these cracks, known as crevasses, form as a result of the immense pressure exerted on the ice during its descent down the mountain. Over time, these fractures appear and vanish, leaving behind a dynamic landscape that is ever-changing. The photograph was taken in Westland National Park within the Southern Alps on New Zealand's South Island. This region boasts stunning natural features like icy peaks and snowy landscapes that make it an ideal destination for adventurers and nature enthusiasts alike. As we delve into this image, we can't help but marvel at how intricately detailed each crevasse appears. Some of them reach astonishing depths beneath their icy facade. It serves as a reminder of both the power and fragility inherent in our planet's geological processes. This print from Science Photo Library offers us a glimpse into one small corner of Earth's vast wonders—a testament to its physical geography and environmental science. It invites us to appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also raises awareness about preserving such pristine environments for future generations to cherish.
