Icelandic rivers are spectacular sights from above, The majority of the rivers have their origin in the glaciers. Hence the milky character due to high content of glacier silt. On heir way towards The Atlantic Ocean they form into giant deltas systems with very complex flow patterns. The patterns on the surface of the contributing glaciers are also spectacular in terms of complexity. On top of the ice you can see annual rings of layers of volcanic ash from different eruptions. The flow patterns of the "icerivers" and the glaciers are very similar in character. These aerial photographs were taken from Cessnas and helicopters from about 1000ft. above the ground. [+]
