Green Sea Turtle Rising Through Ice in Iceland
by Keith Taylor
Sunlight fractures through a thick ceiling of sea ice, casting jagged beams of pale gold into the deep blue water. A large green sea turtle ascends from the darkness, its flippers pushing against the cold current. Tiny suspended particles glitter in the water column, catching the first rays of sunrise that pierce the polar night. The turtle's smooth, olive skin reflects the shifting light as it nears the surface. Above, the ice sheet is translucent and textured with air bubbles, creating a luminous barrier between the ocean and the sky. The low angle view emphasizes the creature's upward trajectory against the glowing fissure in the ice. A thin trail of bubbles escapes from the turtle's nostrils, rising toward the light.
