Abraham is an artificial lake from 1972, when the Bighorn dam was built. It’s situated in the North Saskatchewan river, to the west of the Canadian city Alberta, at the foot of the Rocky Mountains.

Its particularity of the multiple frozen bubbles is because of the cold temperature that creates a large column as the frosty weather increases. The lake has a surface of 53,7 km2 and a length of 32km. Photographers considered the place as one of the most picturesque and unique in its type given the extraordinary pics the landscape can offer.  

“The bubbles are due to the action of the vegetation that grows in the seabed. These plants release methane, but before getting to the surface it freezes which provokes iced bubbles. Like that, the joining of the bubbles ends up creating a series of columns that the coldest the lake water, the deepest would be these columns. This phenom happens during the months of winter”, says the ecured spokesmen.
