Description
Poza de la Sal · Burgos Province · Spain
This formation looks like stone, but is mainly salt rock. A diapir, from Greek diapeirein,"to pierce through" is an intrusion caused by buoyancy and pressure differentials. Diapirs may include igneous structures, but are more commonly applied to non-igneous, relatively cold materials, such as salt domes and mud diapirs; diapirism is thought to occur on Enceladus, a moon of Saturn. A diapir is any relatively mobile mass that intrudes into preexisting strata.(from Wikipedia) This one is the biggest in Europe and as you see is quite photogenic.

This seems like a perfect paradise! Such beautiful colours and tones, the way the earth magically, yet naturally forms geologically. A very interesting explanation as well--thank you! Always nice to learn something new. This reminds me of a fairy-tale land.... once upon a time in a far away land.... this is surreal, I can't tell you how much I'd love to be there right now, running through the open spaces. A magnificent capture, absolutely perfect!
