Landscape, Svalbard - 2


This is across the fjord from Barentsburg, this channel is about 6m (20ft) deep, a seasonal melt water channel, a small permanent stream runs along the bed to the right. Further up the valley into the distance is a man-made lake that supplies Barentsburg with its fresh water supplies.
