vacation snaps of the abyss

everybody say IA! 

Ooooh, I know where I want to go for my next vacation.

The Deep is not only the most stunningly beautiful book about the sea ever produced, but also a work of scientific substance, articulated by some of the best, most experienced deep-sea scientists of our time. Even for those of us who have been enchanted by the wondrous life of the deep sea through direct engagement, this book renews the spirit and makes it possible to share with others a vicarious glimpse of the wild ocean.”
Sylvia Earle, National Geographic Society

These are amazing shots of unknown sea life from the deepest depths of the world’s oceans. If you can get past the annoying Flash intro to the gallery pages, you’ll see some truly amazing photographs. They may look familiar, because a diggbait site stole and posted some last week, but this is the real source: accept no substitutes!

  1. Oh yes, I looked. I have no idea how one gets some of those images; it’s like art is implicit in math, which I guess some of the more advanced mathematicians would have told us. Gorgeous stuff, just gorgeous. I shall steal some at some point for blog adornment, of that I have no doubt.
