Prophet Lot - Lake of Sodom. The salt crystal precipitate resulting from evaporation that entails the water salinity.
The image highlights macro crystalline salt formations resting on mud and gravel along the shoreline of Mount Sodom at the southwestern edge of the Dead Sea, Israel. The hypersaline waters of the lake regularly deposit these rough, snow-white salt crystals across the nearby rocks and shores, creating heavily encrusted mineral clusters that characterize the immediate basin surrounding the salt mountain.
