These tailing ponds are located in Western Australia and are a product of waste produced from mining. The colours and shapes vary according to the type of mineral being mined for example gold , aluminium, copper, etc. The temperature is also a factor causing different rates of evaporation thus creating some fascinating abstract images. These tailing ponds are constantly changing, making for some interesting images.
