[Uyuni Salt Flats] In a world without sky or ground, your existence melts away.

Salar de Uyuni spreads across the highlands of Bolivia in South America.

This place, located at an altitude of about 3,700m, is the world's largest salt flat,
and is known as a place where a pure white horizon appears in the dry season and a "mirror world" appears in the rainy season.

I visited during the rainy season. There had been moderate rain the day before, and the lake was slightly watery.

The boundary between the sky and the ground had completely disappeared, and a world where it felt like "walking on the sky" unfolded before me.
