This is the Rann of Kutch Lake — a vast salt marsh that changes with the seasons.

As summer begins, the water slowly retreats, leaving behind layers of salt, moisture, and earth. These shifting layers create gentle gradients of colour across the land — blues, browns, and soft earthy tones blending into one another.

What looks like an abstract painting is actually a landscape in transition, quietly reshaping itself over time.

And above it, the Milky Way stretches across the sky, adding another layer of depth to an already endless scene.
