Located in California's eastern Sierra Nevada, this saline soda lake has no outlet, causing high levels of salts to accumulate. In this surreal rendition, the tufa towers are reimagined to emphasize artistic expression over geological accuracy, showcasing the reserve’s iconic features in a new light, which not only enhances its mystique but also highlights the critical importance of conserving such unique natural environments.
