   Following on from Flamingo lagoon, Machuca, Atacama, the last day tour I took was to the high plains to see salt water lagoons.
All a7iv and SEL2470GM or SEL200600 G OSS.

1. On the way we saw a bit of wildlife.

2. Miscanti Lagoon, Altiplano, Atacama. Elevation 4,140m above sea level, so the air was a bit thin. Salt crust at the edges. All looking very crisp in the cold, clean air.

My series of posts from my visit to Atacama concludes with images from the Salar de Atacama salt flats.
