This picture was snapped by a Ukrainian photographer in the Carpathian Mountains circa 2015.
We reached out to Shevchuk for more information about the photographs, and he told us it was a flashlight, not a fire, illuminating this igloo from within. Furthermore, this is a"" photograph, which means that the camera's shutter was held open for an extended period of time, allowing more light to hit the sensor. In other words, this igloo wouldn't appear nearly as bright to a person standing next to it.
While the images above may give viewers the impression that raging bonfires were commonly built inside of igloos, that wasn't the case. Traditionally, a much smaller flame from a, a sort of lamp or candle made from seal-oil or blubber, was used to light and heat the inside of an igloo. Snow is such a good insulator that some animals dig snow caves in which to hibernate through the winter. New snow is composed of a high percentage of air trapped among the accumulated snow crystals. Since the air can barely move, heat transfer is greatly reduced. Fresh, uncompacted snow typically is 90 to 95 percent trapped air. Many animals take advantage of snow's insulating qualities, and burrow into the snow to hibernate through the winter.
