LifeA roadside memorial in the desert: chai, the Hebrew word for "life". Looks like the remains of some sort of structure at the right. And shows the geology and habitat, too. Note how dusty the air is. The mountains in the distance are in Jordan; they're really not that far away, but the visibility is terrible.

Salt worksA large portion of the southern Dead Sea is devoted to the salt industry ( www.wysinfo.com/Dead_Sea/dead_sea_works.htm ). On the right there, there's a pile of some ordinary-looking white salt, I think with dust on top; don't know what the red stuff is -- maybe carnallite? That is produced here. ID help welcome!
