The ship's passage through the loose pack ice, taken from the bridge of the ice breaker Kapitan Dranitsyn (1980)

A view of the ship's passage through the loose ice pack in Queen Maud Gulf or Victoria Strait taken looking back over the stern from the starboard side bridge roof of the ice breaker Kapitan Dranitsyn (1980). The water is clear enough that the submerged ice appears aquamarine in colour.
