Man made salt ponds? Not exactly a natural wonder. But the sunlight does get reflected in all sorts of cool colors.

Nice thread, BTW.
Bttt
Such magnificent images! I’m so glad you decided to run the photography ping list. Thanks again for posting these.
So many things here deserve comment but it’s late so a few will have to do. Aerials have always been among my favorites, combining abstract textures that eventually give way to realism after enough time spent figuring out what I’m looking at. At first I thought I was looking at images from a book I came across several years ago called “Earth From Above”. It turns out that it is available on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Earth-Above-Third-Yann-Arthus-Bertrand/dp/081095947X and is also part of a five episode series on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCcUoSYOnsM&t=65s
While all the pictures stand out I have to mention the foliage outside the window for it’s limited palette and subdued lighting and the fall leaves with the photographer’s absolutely marvelous bokeh. While I have done much the same using Photoshop I think she’s done an exemplary piece of work and, if this image was shot entirely in camera I’d love to know what lens she is using. After writing so far I went up to her gallery http://www.sarahfionahelme.com/ and she defiantly is a master of bokeh. Bravo !
