Pink salt flats, Salin-de-Giraud, Bouches-du-Rhone, France

Pink saltwater flats under a stormy sky, owned by the Salins Group, aerial view, near Salin-de-Giraud, Bouches-du-Rhone, France. The Salins company extracts salt from the marshes for use in food, agriculture and industry. The pink colour is caused by an algae which thrives in the saline water. Picture by Manuel Cohen
