Salt stains.
Going through some old folders this week and found another image from some time ago when walking in areas way off the River Murray main area. This is where salt has taken over old swamp lands.
This area has been in this poor condition for a long time and was nothing to do with current water levels.
The stormy clouds on the day threw great colours from the salt.
Taken between Renmark and Berri in South Australia.
Canon 400D with CIR Polariser on 18-55 kit lens.
