This image titled Desert Sea cought my eye in National Geographic. It is a photograph by David Doubilet and was taken on the Sinai coast of Marsa al Muqabilah in 1981. I find it really strannge to look at because there is absolutely no visible life in the image. The write up that goes along with this image discussed the photographer more than the actual image itself, so I'm not exactly sure why there is no life. Maybe there is usualy fish but the image was captured when no fish were around. I just thought this was an interesting image to look at.Tuesday, January 9, 2007

Like on land; oceans have deserts as well; entire ecosystems that have their own characteristic vegetation and species...
it is a great photo.
Good start to your blog!
