Naturally striped Antarctic icebergs are almost too beautiful to be real

Norwegian sailor Oyvind Tangen took the photos from a research ship 660 miles north of the Antarctic. The brown and black stripes you see on the icebergs are created by sediment underneath the ice shelf, while the deep blue ice is the result of compressed snow and a lack of air bubbles. These gorgeous frozen glaciers are also described as “frozen waves.” You can see more photos of this phenomenon
