'Ichthyo - The Architecture of Fish' publication






Ichthyo (Latin, from Greek ikhthuo-, from ikhths, fish).

Ichthyo -- The Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History’s radiograph photographs were created in the 19th century for scientific study. The images, of the architecture of fish, are wonderful indeed. Besides their beauty, they remind me of my desire to see what the cliff behind Niagara Falls looks like. That's why it is delightful to see and walk down dry river beds (caused by natural drought)...nosy or curious, I am.
