Permafrost Cliff Ice Wedges Silhouetted Against City Lights in in Canada

Permafrost Cliff Ice Wedges Silhouetted Against City Lights

by Karl Vargas

A jagged wall of permafrost rises in stark silhouette against the deepening twilight of a Canadian polar night. The cliff face reveals a network of exposed ice wedges, their vertical fissures etched into the dark earth like frozen cracks in glass. Gentle snowflakes drift through the air, catching faint glimmers of light as they fall. In the distance, the first warm points of city lights begin to glow, offering a soft, distant counterpoint to the cold, rugged foreground. The snow-covered ground stretches flat before the towering face, showing the sheer scale of the geological formation. at the edge is the sharp, white edge of a snowflake resting on the dark, jagged rim of the cliff.
