The Shark House

Journal Entry

From the journal of Minnow Gray

It was Rachel Carson, the marine biologist I aspire to be, who so eloquently helped me understand why we see the sea as blue, and in Hawai?i this seems

more the case than ever. Especially here on the Big Island. The water molecules and tiny particulate matter reflect sunlight

back to our eyes, yet the ocean has absorbed the red and some of the yellow, leaving cool and glorious blue light. When you

think about it, the blue we see is this subtle and ever-changing dance between the sun, the ocean and our eyes.
