EDITORS COMMENTS

This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of Lake Assal, located at an astonishing 509 feet below sea level, making it the lowest point in Africa. The image transports us to this remote corner of Djibouti, where the vastness of a crystal-clear lake meets the ruggedness of a desert landscape. For centuries, indigenous Afar tribesmen have been drawn to this extraordinary place with their loyal camels. They come here regularly to collect salt, a tradition that has stood the test of time. The nomadic tribesmen skillfully load sacks onto their camels, carefully harvesting salt from the saline-rich deposits found around Lake Assal. In recent years, modernization has brought about mechanical harvesting techniques in an attempt to meet growing demands for this precious mineral. Bulldozers and lorries now play a role in extracting and transporting salt from these ancient grounds. However, as we admire this stunning photograph capturing both tradition and progress intertwined within African history, let us not forget the environmental challenges faced by Lake Assal. Desertification threatens its delicate ecosystem and calls for sustainable practices in mining operations. Through this powerful image captured by NP from Discover Images by AWL (not associated with any commercial use), we are reminded of both nature's wonders and our responsibility towards preserving them for future generations.
