Just to clarify more: photo has to be takebln during summer months. In winter, all salt stones covered by water.

Salt is covered not due to season, only due to flooding of minerals mining activity of nearby plants. Winter gets nicer sunrises with clouds in the sky. In the summer much less clouds in the area.
