SOLHEIMAJOKULL
View south west across the snout of Solheimajokull, 
with the Westman Islands in the distance.

Solheimajokull is a glacier in southern Iceland. In fact it's one of my absolute all-time favorite glaciers... or at least it was until it started retreating so fast and looking so scruffy around the edges!
 
Crevasses on the surface. Meltwater outlet at the snout.
