The salt pans spread out by the sea like a mosaic of stone. The sky is reflected in their shallow pools as the waves break on the edge of the coast. The play of sun and wind slowly transforms the water into salt - into small, sparkling crystals that appear like the white gold of the Mediterranean.
This landscape tells stories of patience and devotion. Generations of Maltese have worked here, the sea both a friend and a challenge. Salt was once the basis of life, a treasure that nature gave and that people harvested with respect.
The picture shows the harmony between man and nature: the sound of the sea, the glittering pools and the endless expanse of sky. It is a place of tranquillity and at the same time of power, where the elemental reveals itself. The salt pans are more than just technology - they symbolise the connection between earth, water and sun.
