Believe It Or Not: These Natural Photos Are Completely Real

Lake Natron

No, this isn’t a picture of Mars! This unique saline lake rests in a country in Africa and has a pretty amazing origin. After the incredible heat it faces each day, most of the water evaporates into the sky leaving nothing but the salts at the bottom.

As well as salts, the bottom on this African lake also has minerals and micro-organisms. It’s the organisms that live here that turn the remaining water red. Therefore, the remaining image of the red lake makes for a perfect photo.
