Bonjour Yitzhak,
un document très bien photographié pour illuster ce phénomène unique de la Mer Morte ou Dead Sea. La salinité très élevée en rend les baignades audacieuses mais parait-il, excellentes pour la peau.
Les couleurs sont magnifiques.
Best regards.
Daniel.

Hello Yizthak,
I think that these waves of salt are very impressive, and I wish to go there once again, the last time was in 1997. What a nice color has the Dead Sea. Stunning and well composed picture - Izzet

Hi Itzik,
Love these repeating patterns in the salts, shore, and land. Nicely framed, the salt pattern and the land are on the two diagonals, increasing the picture dynamics. Definitely a place to come back and shoot again.
Best, Florin

Hi Ytzhak - you've achieved excellent exposure, the colors are amazing, not just the blue and white - also those on ground. The POV you found is very efficient. Bravo! Daniel

Great, great, great. I'd dream to take such a shot. Congrats.!!!

I love the Dead Sea, I've been there so many times and I will go more :-) This photo captured the greatness of Yam Hamelach.

Too bad those divers are still missing.....
Happy NY! bye, femke

Hi Yitzhak

Missed this one. I like the symmetry of the 2 headlands, & the salt adds interest. Excellent colour & sharpness. Tfs!

Hi Itzik,
this is interesting to see beauty of the Dead Sea like this "waves". Good composition, I like that you didn´t make a saturation, colours are super.
