17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Sunset on the Tasman River

The Tasman river is formed from the glacial melt from New Zealand's largest glacier; The Tasman Glacier. Unfortunately, due to climate change this happens to be also the quickest retreating glacier, with now huge icebergs floating in its glacier lake. The glacial melt has an incredible blue hue to its waters.
