Hi friends,
The Dead Sea again. Its waters are so saturated with minerals, that
every solid object in the water gets soon covered with heavy layers
of salt. In fact, when you enter the sea for a swim - very
recommended health-wise ( The water has an oily feeling, bitter in
taste, and it's highly recommended to prevent water entering the
eyes ) - and come out from the water, a nice layer of salt
builds-up on your body. Every movement of arm or leg sounds a
cracking sound. Brrrrrrrrrrrr... So people are heading directly to
the nearest shower.
In this photo we see a rock in the water, with heavy sediments of
salt accumulating around it. From time to time workers break and
take to the refineries the solid salt plates.
==============================================
What I find so fascinating is to watch people from all types and
races, who live in my country - Israel. This young lady is
Caucasian by birth, with her face carrying traces of that origin.
Add to it the fact that she was a very very kind lady, and you get
why I took this shot of her at midnight inside the dining room
(yes, they serve
free all the time, even at midnight).
Enjoy clicking, Yehuda
