Exploring the world from above, we witness the stunning contrasts in various landscapes. In Palestine, the Delta Nile meets the Mediterranean Sea, painting a mosaic of blues and greens against the backdrop of salt formations. In Alexandria, a flight reveals the vast expanse of the Egyptian coastline and its salt pans, shimmering under the sun. Meanwhile, in the Atacama Desert of Chile, flamingos take flight against the backdrop of the otherworldly Atacama Salt Lake. At an elevation of 13,800 feet in the Andes Mountains, salt deposits glisten in the midday sun. As the day ends, a flamingo quenches its thirst at the lake's edge, surrounded by the surreal landscape. Contrastingly, the Devils Golf Course in Death Valley, USA, showcases the harsh reality of salt formations, with jagged, sharp formations that seem to defy the desert's arid conditions. A satellite image of the Aral Sea from 1973 reveals a once-thriving body of water, now reduced to a mere shadow of its former self due to human activities. The same image from 2000 illustrates the devastating impact on the salt deposits, now exposed and vastly expanded. Lastly, in the Cape Verde Islands of Africa, old salinas with salt deposits at Pedro Da Sal, Sal, continue to captivate visitors with their unique beauty and rich history. These salt formations, much like the landscapes they inhabit, offer a glimpse into the diverse and ever-changing world around us.
