Iceland_Glacier_Lagoon_D8E3966-Edit.tif
Golden evening rays backlight the blue icebergs on Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon. Jökulsárlón is situated in southeast Iceland, on the borders of Vatnajökull National Park. The lagoon stands 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) away from the ocean's edge and covers an area of about 18 km2 (6.9 sq mi). It recently became the deepest lake in Iceland at over 248 metres (814 ft) depth as glacial retreat extended its boundaries.
