Located near the village of Fagurhólsmýri in southern Iceland, the interior of the cave boasts otherworldly frozen shapes and patterns which left photographer Lior Yakoobi speechless. The 40-year-old, of Kibbutz Givat Haim, Israel, visited the Icelandic caves earlier this year. He says: “Seeing the ice caves for the first time was such an amazing experience. “The sights were breath-taking. It was like walking into another world."
