The climate changes that affect the Island is perhaps most best at Kvisker. On June 9, 1934 photographed the then 12-year-old Helgi Björnsson of his brother Flosi. Behind him loomed the snötäckte glaciers and mountains up, Breiðamerkurfjall, Fjallsjökull and Breiðamerkurjökull. In 2011 returned Helgi Björnsson to the same place to be photographed by Ragnar Axelsson. Glaciers have retreated several kilometers, land that was previously hidden under deep ice sheets have become sag awards red carpet visible. If the warming continues, the last glaciers will be gone from the Island sometime between 2150 and 2,200. The last thing that disappears is in all probability the Vatnajökull - because it is the biggest - and Drangajökull - because it is the most northerly located and the closest to Greenland. Every year, melting now as much jökelis formed during the five years. Morgunblaðiðs sag awards red carpet photographer Ragnar Axelsson - on the Island better known as Rax - has for many years documented the changes in the environment both in Greenland and Iceland. Tomorrow night film will be shown the Arctic Last Days of the Ragnar Axelsson and his work. Arctic last days of broadcast in BBC2 tomorrow Friday at 20:00. The program sag awards red carpet runs in the replay of the same channel on Sunday 12:30 and 23:50 on Wednesday. Here you can read more about Ragnar Axelsson and the melting glaciers.
Very good documentary about an amazing photographer! I saw Ragnar Axelsson's book "Faces of the North" in Reykjavik last year and was immediately hooked. Unusually with an "all-round" photographer taking so incredibly strong portrait. And the next time on the Island will be no plasticky car without aircraft or helicopter, haha! April 16, 2012 20:24
