After a day of broken plans turned into some cloud watching, I got to thinking of beauty and design in nature. I came across a phenomenon known as striped icebergs; plain and simple they are dope. Check them out on google images for more pictures. This was the explanation given on how these are formed:

Blue stripes are often created when a crevice in the ice sheet fills up with meltwater and freezes so quickly that no bubbles form.

When an iceberg falls into the sea, a layer of salty seawater can freeze to the underside. If this is rich in algae, it can form a green stripe.

Brown, black and yellow lines are caused by sediment, picked up when the ice sheet grinds downhill towards the sea.

Also, if you aren’t familiar with the title reference look up Iceberg Slim and his life/work. An interesting historical “character” often referenced in popular culture.
