Hundreds pose nude in the Dead Sea (27 images)

Hundreds of Israelis and internationals shed their clothes at dawn on September 15, to pose nude for Spencer Tunick's first art project in Israel, "Naked Sea". The Dead Sea is the lowest point on earth and it's high salinity enables an unique flotation experience. The "Naked Sea" project hopes to raise awareness of the disappearing of the Dead Sea and help in the bid to become one of the Seven Wonders of the Natural World. UPI/Debbie Hill
