But thanks anyway.

That second photo is actually a dam. Here is the back side. I did not walk on the dam.

Today's photo: Foreground and background in Utah. The last photo has a salt plant on the left processing salt from Great Salt Lake.

I like the first pic a lot. The mountains give it a lot of depth. Very nice composition.

I've never seen a salt processing plant before. I know salt doesn't just magically appear in the store, but I never really thought about how it's extracted from the water. I'm assuming a lot of boiling, and evaporation, which makes the most sense.
