Mud cracks 2" wide and 5" deep!
The 12-mile section of Hwy 1`90 from Panamint Springs nearly to the Saline Valley road intersection has several portions that are one lane only, so it is available by following a pilot vehicle only. Delays can be 30-40+ minutes.
Ever notice how when the afternoon starts getting late, you get the most beautiful reflections?

An early morning shot of the beach defences at Happisburgh which are not doing the job as a lot more of the cliffs seem to have disappeared since we were last there although the cliffs do seem to consist of nothing more than mud and sand.

We visited this unique landscape with mud volcanoes in Buzau Mts., Romania. Here are some more details about this place:
"The Berca Mud Volcanoes are a geological and botanical reservation located in the Berca commune in the Buzău County in Romania. Its most spectacular feature is the mud volcanoes, small volcano-shaped structures typically a few meters high caused by the eruption of mud and natural gases.
As the gases erupt from 3000 meters-deep towards the surface, through the underground layers of clay and water, they push up underground salty water and mud, so that they overflow through the mouths of the volcanoes, while the gas emerges as bubbles. The mud dries off at the surface, creating a relatively solid conical structure, resembling a real volcano. The mud expelled by them is cold, as it comes from inside the Earth's continental crust layers, and not from the mantle.
The reservation is unique in Romania. The mud volcanoes create a strange lunar landscape, due to the absence of vegetation around the cones. Vegetation is scarce because the soil is very salty, an environmental condition in which few plants can survive." (Wikipedia)
Just a little pattern I saw in the mud while hiking in the Badlands National Park, South Dakota. It was pretty bland until I slid those sliders around and coaxed these cool colors to emerge turning the mud into gold. In the process, I even found some small animal tracks. I hope those little feet did better with the mud than my sneakers did, the mud was a mixture of glue and concrete!

I need to wash my truck. Mud season is here and the snow is finally melting, but there are still big snowbanks at the Sinks parking lot in Logan Canyon, Utah.
Fifth picture of the series Canes & Mud.
(For this time a Self-portrait, evoking ancient past fishermen. A very difficult picture to execute as it got very windy and I had to remain immobile for 30 seconds of exposure)
Magical sunrise in this beautiful place that is the Albufera of Valencia.
The image title is because during the photoshoot, surrounded by all this beauty, calm water, boat, reeds, mud, tranquility, flying birds ... every moment reminded me a lot to the great novel "Cañas y Barro" of the great Valencian writer Vicente Blasco Ibáñez, set in rural Valencia (Albufera) of the early twentieth century, the novel observes and portrays the social reality of the time and place with absolute precision.
Would like to thank this picture to my friend Javier Girbés, which helped me a lot with the location and encouraged me to know this magnificent spot.
On the technical side, say that I only used a screwed ten steps filter combined with a neutral gradient three steps filter.
I hope you like it. Have a nice Wednesday. :)

This may have been the most full I've ever seen this feature, probably because of the major rains the week before.
It's not a volcano, by the way, just a mud pot - a hot spring with dissolved solids in it.
I like the patterns. I always give mud a look in case there are tracks.

Blue Pond (青い池 Aoi-ike) is a man-made pond feature in Biei, Hokkaido, Japan. It is the result of works on the Biei River (美瑛川), carried out after the 1988 eruption of Mount Tokachi, to protect the town of Biei from volcanic mudflows. The colour is thought to result from the accidental presence of colloidal aluminium hydroxide in the water.[1][2] Damage caused by Typhoon Mindulle in August 2016 resulted in a temporary drop in the water level and in the colour briefly turning brown with mud and sand from the Biei River.
"Why are the elephants orange?" is a question I hear a lot at our zoo. There is a lot, and I mean a lot of red clay, in the area. The elephants have a mud hole in which they can bathe. It helps them cool off on the hot Carolina summer days.

This was the most intense smelling place. Stay too long and you can start to feel a little light headed...or nauseous. This place is ripe with Hydrogen Sulfide and Carbon Dioxide. But, the wonderful microorganisms that thrive on the Hydrogen Sulfide convert that gas into Sulfuric Acid, which in turn break down the rocks into the mud. <3 Biology
