Reserva National de Flamencos overlook for sunrise near San Pedro de Atacama, Chile.
This is one of our first photography outings while acclimating in San Pedro de Atacama, Chile, on our way to the much anticipated salt fields of Bolivia. Our goal was to see the tens of thousands of acres of salt flats of Bolivia or the Salar de Uyuni. These salt flats are submerged in 4-8 inches of calm reflective water. My desire to drive to the salt flats of Bolivia resulted from Art Wolfe showing beautiful, unique photos through his TV series, Travels to the Edge. So much of the Uyuni salt flats of Bolivia have changed since then and not necessarily for the better. (Please note you may click on images for a larger viewing)
