The photo depicts ice chunks broken off from the front of Hoffellsjökull glacier, floating in a glacial lagoon that, in spring, has taken on the color of a latte. Among the hundreds of detached ice chunks, I spotted this one, uniquely heart-shaped. I wonder how many such moments I have missed, unaware of their existence. An hour earlier, an hour later, and the heart could have disappeared, dissolved into the icy chaos. Nature, constantly changing its face, gifted me this fleeting masterpiece, reminding me how precious the moments are that we can capture only for an instant.
