Impossible colours
A very good friend took me on a trip to Napa today... via plane. It was a wonderful flight and made me feel almost sad that I didn't live in the Bay Area anymore and was just visiting for the week.
I have seen images of the salt ponds with really vibrant colours. These pastels are still stunning though. I understand that the change in the vibrancy is down to more environmental practices to create salt marshes which reduces the saline content and changes the algae and bacteria present.
I still find these colours dramatic enough though. it seems almost impossible that algae and bacteria can cause such a patchwork of different shades.
