See the Amazing, Ethereal Creatures Living Under Arctic Ice
Viktor Lyagushkin, a National Geographic photographer, captures the world of sea angels, skeleton shrimp, and sea stars living beneath a frozen sea. He compares entering the water through a hole in the ice to Alice descending through a rabbit hole on her way to Wonderland in his description of the dramatic scenes beneath the ice.
