The Great Salt Lake
I went on a little feature hunt yesterday and ended up at the famous Salt Lake of Utah. it is funny. Everyone outside of Utah thinks everyone who lives in Utah always hang out at the Lake. It is thought to be like a resort destination with beautiful beaches and nice salty water. In reality, the lake stinks like rotting eggs, and is the home to million of tiny brine flies. It is true that the lake is salty, usually around 15% salinity, but it is one of those places most people visit once or twice in their life time and that is plenty.
So, I waded out in the waste deep salt later and photographed some tourists from Germany and Switzerland floating in the water.
