Sólheimajökull is an outlet glacier of the mighty icecap of Mýrdalsjökull on the South Coast of Iceland.
It is just 158 kilometres (98 miles) away from Reykjavík.
About eight kilometres long and two kilometres wide it is the fourth largest ice cap in Iceland.
Beneath its thick surface is one of the country’s most infamous volcanoes, Katla.
Sadly, like all the glaciers in Iceland, Sólheimajökull is shrinking rapidly.
A glacier lagoon at its base reveals how quickly it is receding: the length of an Olympic swimming pool every year.
It seems like this change is already an irreversible consequence of climate change, and it may be gone within decades.
