Salt Mountain

The amazing backdrop to the girls' hockey today was a mountain of salt. The processing plant is right next to the hockey turf. Once processed the salt is used in food products and pharmaceuticals.

Wow that is very interesting and a whole lot of salt

[Louise & Ken]

I somehow never pictured salt piled high and deep! This makes for a fascinating photo and the opportunity to share something quite unusual with us!

[Jane winfrey]

That IS interesting! At first glance I thought it was snow lol great capture :)

[Stephanie Swift]

Great colour and light, and what a fantastic backdrop the salt makes.

Great contrast of colours. Well taken

[Dianne]

A great image and one we so often see too. The salt looks great against the grey sky, and the orate and blue provide a great contrast.

[Delia]

The colors are amazing!

[Delia]

[Sally]

@bkbinthecity @Weezilou @janewinfrey @tristansmum @julzmaioro @sallya @phil_howcroft @cocobella @rickster549 Thank you all very much.
@dide Thanks Dianne. This was the first time I've been to this turf so I haven't seen a salt mountain before - it's quite amazing.
@deliad Thanks Delia. The girl lying down is just tired from playing hard in the first half of the game, although it does look a bit like she's collapsed and they're all ignoring her.

I like the salt at the back. It makes the picture unusual. Well done.
