"Under the Ice of the White Sea"

The Story: This photo was taken in the White Sea at the level of the Arctic Circle. In winter, the White Sea is covered with a layer of ice more than one meter thick. Ice breaks off the coast due to tides. This creates various, impressive shapes of ice, on which sunlight is refracted and creates a magical atmosphere. The intention of this picture is to capture this unusual atmosphere.
