Salt games in salt water , that is what you see !

Salt , water and Earth - dreams from Underworld .....

The Dead Sea , also called the Salt Sea, is a salt lake bordering Jordan to the east and Israel and the West Bank to the west. Its surface and shores are 423 metres (1,388 ft) below sea level, the lowest elevation on the Earth's surface on dry land. The Dead Sea is 377 m (1,237 ft) deep, the deepest hypersaline lake in the world. With 33.7% salinity, it is also one of the world's saltiest bodies of water, though Lake Assal (Djibouti), Garabogazköl and some hypersaline lakes of the McMurdo Dry Valleys in Antarctica (such as Don Juan Pond) have reported higher salinities. It is 8.6 times saltier than the ocean. This salinity makes for a harsh environment in which animals cannot flourish, hence its name. The Dead Sea is 67 kilometres (42 mi) long and 18 kilometres (11 mi) wide at its widest point.

most people except blue sky and sunshine what is not always possible for a photograph, i dont mind this. For me counts more the land/ seascape you catched. well and even the fact that you call it dreams from underworld would not stop me to put my shoes on and go straight ahead, adventure is calling, somehow i get this exploring feelings right now. Great job
