Ascent of the Brienzer Rothorn in the Canton of Bern, Switzerland via the 125 Year-Old Steam Cog Railway - the oldest and steepest in the world. A stunning series of 21 images depicting the ascent of the Brienzer Rothorn in the Bernese Oberland in Switzerland. The journey takes one hour and ascends to the summit at 7500 feet using specially designed steam locomotives for operating on extremely steep gradients. The line has been running each and every summer since 1892, making it the oldest railway of its kind in the world as well as the steepest. The spectacular scenery on the ascent as it rises above the turquoise, glacial waters of Lake Brienz culminating in the tremendous views at the summit with an almost airborne quality are perfectly captured in clear early Autumn light. glacial plain stock pictures, royalty-free photos & images

Iceland Braided River Abstract Aerial view from 1500 feet of braided river along southwest coast of Iceland. Braided rivers are usually wide but shallow. They typically form on fairly steep slopes and carry large amount of coarse-grained sediments. When the river’s flow decreases, these sediments get deposited on the river bed leaving behind small temporary islands of sands that cause the river’s channel to split. Aside from a steep gradient and abundance of sediments, a variable water discharge rate is essential to their formation. Consequently, braided rivers exist near mountainous regions, especially those with glaciers. Braided channels are also found in environments that dramatically decrease channel depth, and hence channel velocity, such as river deltas and alluvial fans. Abstract design is created by different temperatures and densities between glacial feed, spring water and ocean water. Dark areas indicate fairly translucent spring water. Light blue areas are glacial water which take on an opaque appearance due to sediments suspended in the water. Reds are caused by dissolved ferrous iron. Other dark areas are wet volcanic soil. glacial plain stock pictures, royalty-free photos & images

Kiental from the valley floor- one of the most spectacular Glacier Carved landscapes in the Bernese Oberland, Switzerland A stunning series of 7 images taken from the Kiental valley floor in high summer 2019. The Kiental is a narrow spur off hte larger Kandertal, in the Western part of the Bernese Oberland in Switzerland. It is one of the less well-known and less frequented valleys in Switzerland, sitting at the foot of the Blumlisalp Massif, but it is one of the most attractive and spectacular valleys in this region, if not the entire country. These images perfectly capture the beauty and the grandeur of the Kiental wth its perfectly kept pastoral fields surrounded by some of the highest and most imposing mountains in the Alps - iconically Swiss. This 5th image utilises a portrait format (rather than landscape format), which in itself is unususal for photos of natural landscapes. The striped flagpole and the bright red & white colours of the unfurled Swiss flag, almost translucent in appearance due to a trick of the sunlight, together with the winding mountain road beneath it, lead the viewer into the picture along the valley below the mighty Blumlisalp massif, towering high above the valley floor - the elevation of he mountains is enhanced by the picture being in portrait format - a truly unique shot. glacial plain stock pictures, royalty-free photos & images

Exit Glacier in Kenai Fjords National Park Exit Glacier is a glacier derived from the Harding Icefield in the Kenai Mountains of Alaska and one of Kenai Fjords National Park's major attractions. It is one of the most accessible valley glaciers in Alaska and is a visible indicator of glacial recession due to climate change. Exit Glacier retreated approximately 187 feet from 2013 to 2014 and park scientists continue to monitor and record the glacier's accelerating recession. glacial plain stock pictures, royalty-free photos & images

Kennicott, Alaska Glacial Field The Kennicott Mine, also called the Kennecott Mine, is located in Interior Alaska. This copper mine had its heyday in the early 1900’s. Located in the area known as McCarthy, this ghost town mine once employed hundreds of people. Today it stands as a reminder of days gone by. Visitors come from all across the world to step back into the days of the Kennicott Copper Mine. This glacier field has a green tint to it. This comes from the copper in the dirt. During its heyday structures were created to hold back the ice and dirt. Today it is a reminder and a beautiful scene to observe. glacial plain stock pictures, royalty-free photos & images
