Large translucent block of blue ice with a dimpled, wavy surface lit from behind on a black sand beach, with more ice chunks and a choppy sea beyond. — Glowing Ice Katharine Cashman

Aerial view of a river delta: pale milky channels winding between green wetland, forest and dark lagoons, some water tinted pink and grey. — Living flows Marc Girons Lopez

Silhouette of a hooded person looking up at the bright band of the Milky Way in a star-filled sky, above a dark tree line and a still lake with reeds. — There is never enough time to count all the stars that you want. Vytas Huth

Close-up of grass blades encased in clear, rounded lumps of ice glowing gold in low sunlight, with white foam and a pinkish blurred shore behind. — Icebound blades of grass Katja Laute

Glowing orange burst of lava fragments shooting up inside a dark volcanic crater at night, with smoke and gas drifting over the rim and the full moon behind clouds. — Full moon over Etna's fire Severine Furst

Sky filled with dark and light grey cloud in wavy, swirling layers like brushstrokes, with a thin band of orange light along the bottom. — Nimbostratus painting the sky María Burguet

Small camera on a ship rail thickly coated in feathery hoarfrost, backlit by a low orange sun over icy sea, its frosted mount and cable shaped like an angel holding a sword and banner. — Frozen angel Mikhail Varentsov

Close-up of spider web threads strung with frozen droplets like beads, radiating from a large central drop and resembling a flower, against a soft grey-green background. — Ice lace flower Maria Elena Popa

Close-up of a cluster of glossy dark brown sphalerite crystals with bright gold crystals branching between them like small trees, against a brown background. — Sphalerite's "Transformer" Dmitry Tonkacheev

Black-and-white view of a long beach with cars parked on the sand and waves rolling in, under dramatic heavy clouds, with a small building on a clifftop in the distance. — View of the Mausoleum Mike Smith

Theme of the EGU 2016 General Assembly: Active Planet

Polar bear standing on the edge of a snowy ice floe, leaning forward to press one paw onto thin ice covered with shallow water, its body reflected in the blue surface. — Mirror mirror in the sea... Mario Hoppmann
