Aerial Minimalist Photography Awards 2023

During incoming and outgoing tide, ocean salt water enters the sandy river delta leaving behind small canyons on its way back to the ocean. Due to the hot and dry climate around the river delta, the salt water evaporates and leaves a white salty crust around the canyons which can creates treelike patterns. The color of the water in this area can reach from brown over green to turquoise. While the water coming from the Colorado River gains it brownish color from sediments in the water, the ocean water is clear and turquoise.
