Sunset on the salt lakes of bay area
The views of bay from Amtrak are stunning, especially between Santa Clara and Fremont stations. This part of the bay includes several lakes where water is systematically dried for making salt. Some of these lakes look either reddish or pink due to a certain extremophile micro-organism, which only survives in high saline conditions.
