That unique aroma intoxicates ocean lovers around the world. Nothing else smells like the sea! One whiff transports you into the realm of dreams, memories, childhood, and a time when your imagination was still big and bendy.

Technically, though, it’s not the salt we’re smelling. Most of the aroma comes from the decomposition of microscopic marine life. In other words, what we’re savoring in our nostrils is the smell of death and decay.

Learning this can be a bit of a shock at first. We are taught to recoil from death and worship only growth, to live in our left brain and fear decline.

But the scent of the sea is a song heard by the right brain. Living and dying … they take turns. The mystery of life is ongoing, like the waves, ever changing, adapting, and staying the same.

Deep inhale … and exhale.

Khanh Hoa Salt Field. I came here and took this photo in the colorful afternoon. The sun is going down, preparing hide under far away mountain peaks. Sky and ground are mixed with cloud and light. I stand stupor for a while, try to control the emotions and then start taking photos of people who is harvesting salt, the image of diligent women working the salt fields reflect the hardship of this job and are strong reflection of their lives.
