Great Salt Lake was much bigger until the last ice age, about 10,000 years ago. When the salty water evaporated, salt remained on the ground. It has become this boundless salt pan. Bonneville Salt Flats is a small portion of the salt pan that used to be the lake. Its size is 12 miles by 5 miles at longest. The total area is 46 square miles (119km2). The maximum thickness of salt crust is 5 feet (150cm). Due to the weather, climate (Bs/semi-arid), and the surface being plain white, we were dazzled and weren't able to see ahead.

Monaro Highway - the high country - fine merino wool country - stopped to do a sketch of this shearing shed - it was so cold and windy - but I managed to get it on paper. I have driven past a number of times and said to myself - stop and do this!
Another from the way-way back machine of my archives, this image harkens back to my film days sometime in the late 90's, digitized a few years back. Original image was shot with an Olympus OM-1 and a Tamrom 90mm ƒ2.8 Adaptall mount.
The El Charco de San Gines also known as San Gines Lagoon is an inner inner harbour in the town of Arrecife, Lanzarote. It is often referred to as the "Venice of Lanzarote."
During the last few kilometres of the long 343 kilometre run from Cloncurry to Winton the geomorphology of the region changes for a while as you travel through some very different country to the flat grassy plains. As a person with a lifelong intense interest in this stuff, I had been excited during the whole trip to pass through it again. Flat topped mesas are a bit of an item around Winton. They are formed when a tough layer of rock forms a cap and doesn't weather and erode over millions of years. They are also called "jump ups" around here and the Age of Dinosaurs centre on the other side of Winton is actually situated on top of one. We will get there in a couple more days.
Australia also has a number of quite large mesas, Mt. Conner is often mistaken by tourists at first distant sight on the way to Uluṟu as the actual rock; Mt. Oxley is also another large one in northern New South Wales north of Bourke.
Flat White drifting up the Derwent River towards the finish line of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race. After all the storms at the beginning of the race journey I wonder if this almost complete state of stillness is welcommed or considered a burdon. I was standing by the shoreline for a while and they were moving slowly in the right direction. I imagine they will probably finish late tonight.
My favorite fruit.
Flat peaches are flatter than fruit of more popular peach varieties. Their skin is yellow and red, and they are less fuzzy than many other peaches. The inside of the flat peach is white in appearance.
Flat peaches are usually sweeter than other peaches, but still have a recognizable peach taste. They are said to be more complex-tasting and flavorful, often described as possessing undertones of almond.
The flat peach originated in China, where it is known as pántáo (Chinese: 蟠桃; lit. 'coiled peach').
We have only one tree of this fantastic peach in our orchard, but I will plant another one in late autumn.

Thanks for views, comments and favs :)
Another Light Trail shot from my last morning in NYC, this time of the Flat Iron Building, again using the Live Composite mode. This trip was the first time I had used this particular mode, despite having had the camera for over 18 months. It’s great for these types of shots as it takes the guess work out as you can see the image build up on the screen and just close the shutter when you’re satisfied 😀
I had hoped for a clearer sky in order to get some colour as the sun came up. Unfortunately it it was just leaden skies which then turned to rain, which was nice (not).
