This is the photo I printed out to use for the next in the Salt Pond series. I just learned that the salt ponds will be going away...to be reclaimed for wetlands, I beleive. I hated the idea that Condos would take their place. Though I am glad they are being returned to the enviornment, I will miss their crazy-beauty when flying into SF or San Jose...the bright patchwork-quilt of impossible color from the airplane. They'll still be around for a while, so maybe I can see them in person sometime. I hear 20 years is what it will take to reclaim them. To release all those salts at once would be to kill everything in the bay...
