THE INCREDIBLE BEAUTY OF ICELAND’S ICE CAVES
A stunning ice cave in Iceland is illuminated by sunlight as the bright blue ice appears glow inside. 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."
