Snorkeling II
Posted By Sika on March 16, 2009
It’s so clear down here. I can see every dip and indentation of the lake bottom, looking like a buried civilization is waiting to be uncovered—miniature cliffs and canyons, the bed as if an inverted topography: the opposite world pushing through and leaving its mark. Bottom of an eggcrate lakebed, 50 feet down but still visible in its blue-shifted Mars-like geography. Then, finally, the bottom drops low enough and the fish retreat to their rocky havens, and all dissolves into steady blue—sky and water one, leaving one observation point, hovering in the ionosphere, completely immersed in all and nothing at the same time.
