Description
In Sicilia, the road from Trapani to Marsala skirts round the edge of the lagoon providing fine views of the local saltworks: panels of mirror-like water, held by thin strips of earth, synchronise to form an irregular and multicoloured scene.
In places, the profile of a windmill may be discerned, a reminder of times past when they provided the main means of pumping the water and grinding the salt.
The conical piles of salt, aligned the length of the arione, are being covered with Roman tiles for protection from heavy downpours and dirt.
To better see the windmill, go to my very first upload here on R

Interesting "architectural" to use the tiles to cover the salt. Soft and very appealing tones of color. Very nice.
