Photographer Bruce Mozert made Silver Springs mythic with his underwater photos of people mowing lawns and reclining in loungers and doing other ordinary stuff in water so clear it was as transparent as air. Mozert died at 98 years of age on Oct. 14. To read all about his amazing career and the amazing Silver Springs, read Jeff Klinkenberg’s 2013 story, “Photographer’s love of Silver Springs was crystal clear” at http://www.tampabay.com/features/humaninterest/photographers-love-of-silver-springs-was-crystal-clear/2134127.
