I used a long exposure here to capture the movement in the water as it moves around this wonderful salt formation.

Badwater Basin in Death Valley, California, USA
(an old photo from my archives, must be about 10 years old)
The salt flats in Badwater Basin (86 m below sea level) cover nearly 200 square miles and are among the largest protected salt flats in the world.
This shot was dependent upon several factors outside of my control:
Water up to the shoreline - Salt equipment placed as I wanted - No Wind - No Clouds
The day after it rained, I made a beeline out to this area to see how things have changed. Friday night, I had water and properly positioned equipment!
Sunrise the following day was 5:58 am with no clouds forecasted.
I left home at 4:15 am and made the 20-minute slush through the mud and water to this point – sadly, there was wind for 2 hours and nothing usable.
Sunday morning: Wash; Repeat & Success!
I choose f11 as I had nothing in the foreground, and everything was at a distance – there was no wind and no need for an ND filter – a pretty straightforward shot. This was captured 50 minutes after sunrise. I took several earlier photos, but in the end, this had the color and light I liked most.
The foreground salt reminds me of popcorn with its texture, and the sunset was fantastic!

No need to comment – just enjoy :-)
I love the salt of the earth,
I love the spice of life,
I love the salt of love,
I love the salt in you.

The Salted Ruins, inspired by the beauty of Sri Lanka, will be opening to Members of Elysion for a summer photography challenge on August 26th!
Over several years I tried unsuccessfully to shoot (not literally) the thousands of migrating Greater Flamingos that frequent the Larnaca lake, the Aliki, from November to end February. Some flamingos may stay longer and even spend the summer here. Their numbers can reach tens of thousands spread over a group of lakes of just over 2.2 sq km total area.
This year there were not so many birds and they kept well away from the edges. In order to protect the delicate ecosystem, wading out into the salt lake is prohibited by patrolling guards who can issue on the spot fines of up to several thousand euros. I stayed well back from the edge.

The famous Hoodoo's, the Salt & Pepper Shakers in Red Canyon as you enter Bryce Canyon in Utah. They look like they could fall over at any moment but they are magnificent and very impressive.
A salt bar is typically a soap made with 50-100% of oil weight in salt.
This is a vegan organic Salt Soap.

Great Salt Lake is the largest saltwater lake in the Western Hemisphere and the eighth-largest lake in the world. It is located in the northern part of the state of Utah and has a substantial impact on the local area. With a maximum depth of 11 metres (35 ft.), Salt Lake is fed by three rivers and greatly impacts the regional weather. Once in a while, I like to go back and look at what I photographed over the years. In June 2006 I was in the US State of Utah with my Canon Powershot Pro 1 that i still use.
something began to stir within me, something began to push me, to prompt me. It was a movement that spoke like a voice. “What are you waiting for? . . . Why don’t you do it?”

I just realized that I haven't kept a promise I made a few weeks ago.
And I had promised you the picture of a beautiful historic building that everyone in the city of Lübeck knows, the salt storage. Well, here it is.
It consists of a series of storage buildings built between 1579 (far left) and 1745 (far right). You can see the different architectural styles of the individual parts very well.
Despite the name, not only salt was stored here, but also cloth, grain and wood.
But it all started with salt. This was mainly needed to preserve fish caught in Norway (we're still talking about the 16th century). Pretty impressive.
Soeben habe ich realisiert, dass ich ein Versprechen noch nicht eingelöst habe, was ich vor einigen Wochen gegeben habe.
Und zwar hatte ich Euch noch das Bild eines wunderschönes historischen Gebäudes versprochen, was in Lübeck jeder kennt, den Salzspeicher. Nun, hier ist er.
Er besteht aus einer Reihe von Lagergebäuden, die in der Zeit von 1579 (ganz links) bis 1745 (ganz rechts) erbaut wurden. Man kann sehr gut die unterschiedlichen Baustile der einzelnen Teile erkennen.
Trotz des Namens wurde hier nicht nur Salz gelagert, sondern auch Tuch, Korn oder Holz.
Mit Salz jedoch fing alles an. Dieses wurde hauptsächlich zu konservieren von Fisch benötigt, der in Norwegen gefangen wurde (wir reden immer noch vom 16. Jahrundert). Schon ganz schön beeindruckend.
