Some photos taken on a flight from Denver to San Francisco. If anyone knows what the colorful settling ponds are, I would love to know. After doing a bit of research on Google Earth, I found they cover a relatively large area. The appear to be near Don Edward's San Francisco Bay Nat'l Wildlife Refuge in the southern portion of the bay, south of I-84.

Thanks Jerry. Do you know what accounts for the different colors? Are we talking Sodium Chloride salt?

I returned to the pictures and was looking at the download of the first. In the upper-left corner it looks like there is another plane, and I also saw roads - fascinating.
Thanks again for the posting.
