6. Atmosphere: The air gets thinner the higher you get
This is the sixth photo for my new project, 100 Words, which is based on the list of 100 words from David Clark's book, Photography in 100 words. The word is: Atmosphere.
It always amazes me how little atmosphere we have. The Karman Line marks the line between us and outer space. It is only 100km above the surface of the earth. That's the distance between Bristol and Winchester. That's nothing. The Ozone layer is only 20km above us - if you could walk vertically, you could reach it in an afternoon. This is all we have to protect us from the certain death that is space. We'd probably better look after it.
Next word: Audacity
