This aerial photograph captures a mesmerizing view of a vast salt lake in the Australian outback, with a pair of emu footprints meandering across its surface. The texture of the salt lake is finely captured, revealing beautiful details of the salt formations covering the surface. The tracks of the emu tell a story of their journey across the lake. The shifts in the density of the lake’s surface have caused the soft salt crust to break under the emu's weight. You can observe a loss of definition in the tracks as they march onwards through the salt lake.
