Atlantic Silversides Images and video from the Providence River, which had a bloom of Atlantic silversides. Years ago we'd see Atlantic menhaden, but these seem to have disappeared; they filled the river. The silversides are smaller, but beautiful; the light reflecting from their scales makes the river flash and glisten. (The videos are slight, fish almost invisible, something of Sung aesthetics, uncanny, empty.) http://www.alansondheim.org/silverside7.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/silversideb.mp4 http://www.alansondheim.org/silverside8.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/silverside6.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/silverside3.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/silversidea.mp4
