View from inside an ice cave underneath Iceland's Vatnajökull glacier towards the outside world.

Thanks for your thoughts, particularly with regards to the processing.
Please view large.

Wow Karsten!... that is quite a view. The color and sheen on the ice looks really cool. Excellent textures and detail seen in the large version. Nice work on this. :toast:

Wonderful blue tones and detail in the large version Karsten. Also a very nice flow in the composition towards the entrance. Beautiful job on this. :toast:

The large view is a must to appreciate this, Karsten. The detail on the side walls of the cave along with the color make this work very well. :toast:

I like the composition a lot. This has a lot of dimension due to the perspective. You've done excellent work controlling the dynamic range as well. The processing looks good to me. Oh, did I mention I really like the deep blues?!? :toast:

I like it a lot, it must a tough exposure job and the outside sky looks good.
The ice texture is really good…
You didn't give your settings, so commenting on PP Is difficult.

This makes a beautiful abstract since we have no idea of the scale. Love all the colors of blue, the textures, and reflections. Great job!

Beautiful. It's hard to tell scale; that's probably a good thing.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. The opening of the cave must be about 10 metres in diameter I would guess.

This is a really cool perspective, Karsten. I'm eating up the deep blues coupled with the reflections. Looks like ancient glacier-blue Jello!!
