Salar

O hotel é todo feito de sal.(The hotel is made entirely of salt.)

O horizonte não tem fim (endless horizon).

Parece neve, mas é sal. (Looks like snow but its salt)

The Uyuni Salt Lake. Salar Uyuni.

#1 Explore!

O maior salar do mundo. Fantástico. Um paraiso para fotógrafos (e pseudos como eu).

The Uyuni Salt Lake, the worlds largest salt flat, is a paradise for photographers as it offers magnificent sunrises and sunsets over the endless landscape.

PS: IT'S REAL! IT'S NOT A MONTAGE!!!!!!

Wonderful image. Looks like the figures and vehicles are on the top of the water. Lovely clouds too. I kind of wish you'd gone closer maybe showing less of the building on the right. Great sharpness. Score 9/10 (from the 1for10 group).

Wow never knew these things existed! Bolivia is truly a country to visit!
(4 Aces)

Ah to judge the picture again in "Score Me in Detail";-)

Actually I love this picture, it amazed me that this place existed, the buildings made of salt and the reflection on the ground. The colors you choose (so blue) made me wonder if the reflection of the sky was really so blue but looking at the other photos made me wonder if you had tungsten involved.

Points North says:

This is an excellent shot of an incredible landscape! It looks like ice and snow, and with the blue cast has a cold feeling to it. Very nice to look at on a hot day even after I found out it was salt. :)
