Photographer's Note
Waves of salt, in a shallow part of the Dead Sea.
The object in the middles is a forgotten cargo box, which is now covered with salt. I have no clue how it found its way to get there.
No PP changes were made. Colors are original.

Hey Yitzhak, this is a beautiful series of the dead sea, colours are so wonderful, all in that same blue tone, somehow there's a lot of silence in it. very nice composition with that piece of lanf sticking out in the corner.

I agree with Chris. Nice and very unusual. Other waves and other colours as we know. Well done.

I see you're going through a "blue period" as of lately, Yitzhak, and I like it quite a bit. Another surprising and creative compo from the Dead Sea, with all available elements very well arranged in the frame.

Very relaxing, these blues are new to me for a sea, so light, and the salt looks like waves. I'm not sure about the central box, or including the land. I think lowering the camera and include more of the salt line would capture more of the calmness of this place. great subject, i hope the 'blue phase' contines. well done.

A very special feeling in this picture Yitzhak. The white lines and calm surfaces between them look just like ice to me. Nice compo with the rockslope coming out of the corner and nice diagonals formed by the white lines.

Work on balance, the strong point in the center is used as beam where the composition is organized. Very well done

Hi Yitzhak, Good series of this facinating part of the globe. Your POV and colours are better than many shots of this unusual place. TFS. Murray.
