Description

This wide, outdoor landscape shot features terraced salt ponds in the foreground and earthen structures built into the hillside across the river. The ponds form a patterned grid of brown and off-white rectangles, stretching into the distance. A wide river flows between the salt ponds and the stepped earthen structures on the hillside, and reflects the sky. Behind the structures, a large, brown mountain slopes up to the sky, contrasted against a smaller, green mountain. The scene is bathed in sunlight under a clear, bright blue sky.
