EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing natural phenomenon known as a mirage, observed at Chott Melzhir in the Sahara desert of southern Algeria in 1875. The image showcases the ethereal beauty and mystery of mirages, which have long fascinated explorers and scientists alike.
The shimmering heat waves create an illusion of water or distant objects that seem to appear out of thin air, only to vanish upon closer inspection. This optical illusion is caused by the refraction of light through layers of hot air near the ground, creating a distorted image that plays tricks on the eyes.
Chott Melzhir, with its vast expanse of salt flats and dunes stretching as far as the eye can see, provides the perfect backdrop for such a surreal sight. The history and culture of this region are rich with stories and legends about mirages, adding to the mystique surrounding this natural wonder.
As we gaze upon this historical photograph captured over a century ago, we are reminded of the enduring allure and power of nature's wonders. It serves as a timeless reminder of our planet's capacity to surprise and delight us with its extraordinary phenomena.
