加拿大摄影师镜头下的盐湖 比油画还惊艳！

They look like the work of an abstract artist, instead these perplexing pictures show salt fields.

它们像抽象艺术家笔下的作品，这些令人震撼的照片所拍摄的是盐地。

They are the work of Vancouver-based photographer David Burdeny, whose ‘Salt Series’, shot over the last two years, comprises of pictures taken from a helicopter over locations in Western Australia, Utah and Mexico.

这些于过去两年拍摄的“盐系列”是温哥华摄影师David Burdeny镜头下的作品，他乘坐直升机在澳大利亚西岸，犹他州和墨西哥上空拍下这些照片。

The shallow artificial ponds are designed to extract salt from sea water through evaporation and the vibrant, geometric patterns and colours appear because of variable levels of algae and salt within the ponds.

这些浅水人工湖泊的形成是由于海水中的盐分不断蒸发，然而盐湖中海藻和盐的密度不同，因此产生了各种变幻莫测的几何图案。

As Burdeny explains himself: "The sublime resides even in an ordinary space."

正如Burdeny这样描述自己：“崇高存在于平凡中”。
