Usually familiar with large areas covered by water (oceans, seas and large lakes), snow (Northern Europe and America) and sand (deserts of North Africa, Asia and Australia), with apparent surprise that is sighted for the first time this resplendent desert salt, encouraged by a multitude of reflections of light in crystals of direct exposure to the sun. It feels astonishing.
