- greenroom628, on 07/20/2008, -1/+52yeah, they look cool from above, but they smell really bad up close...
- MiniCooper2007, on 07/20/2008, -1/+45Dugg for seeing those on my way into landing at the airport there and now after a year and a half I know what they actually are.
- inactive, on 07/20/2008, -15/+51All the colors looks so fabulous! That's the excess of gayness leaking out of San Fransisco.
- homer420032003, on 07/20/2008, -0/+30Wait...

- brycehebert, on 05/03/2009, -0/+26Looks like something out of a Dr. Seuss book.
- Victorface, on 07/20/2008, -3/+19These are closer to Sunnyvale and Santa Clara than San Francisco.
- DeffJeff, on 07/20/2008, -0/+12Mmmmmmmm salty algae
- dispontainious, on 07/20/2008, -0/+11theres a note left in the red ponds saying, "moses was here"
- inactive, on 07/20/2008, -2/+11That just goes to show that no matter how discombobulated the world gets, something so simple can have so much beauty and organization.
- theredbanana, on 07/20/2008, -4/+12Even the ponds are gay.
Just kidding, they actually look amazingly cool. - badassninja, on 07/20/2008, -0/+8I flew over those and I nearly forgot about that. It was so unreal that I almost didn't believe my eyes because I didn't understand what I was seeing.
- chaos7, on 07/20/2008, -0/+7crazy colors
- geeshock, on 07/20/2008, -0/+7If you zoom out a bit, they all turn blue.
- Patrickdnj, on 07/20/2008, -0/+6Yeah, and it smells like green eggs and ham.........

- inactive, on 07/20/2008, -3/+7elton john and cher must be performing the same night
- Rev0lver, on 07/20/2008, -1/+4In your case, it's more like Play-D'OH!
- Spyke72, on 07/20/2008, -0/+3Wow, beautiful. I always take them for granted (and roll up the windows due to smell) when driving through them, nice to see a different side.
- inactive, on 07/20/2008, -0/+3Only if its been broken open and left in the sun for a few weeks.
- bettaa, on 07/20/2008, -0/+3they're pretty :-)
- Galaxylander, on 07/20/2008, -1/+4In other news, recent physical mutations discovered in the San Francisco area.
- crazzy88ss, on 07/20/2008, -1/+3Technically, those aren't in SF...
- Punjabdasher, on 07/20/2008, -1/+3I always wondered what the hell those big blotches were on Google Maps.. but the majority are in the South Bay.. not in San Francisco.
- runnernerd, on 07/20/2008, -1/+3Near there are sewage treatment ponds that I had to run around for high school XC. The smell alone has scarred me for life.
- myhandleondigg, on 07/20/2008, -0/+2this stuff seems to pop up on sites like this every few months. very odd that salt ponds grab so much attention.
- Ramble, on 07/20/2008, -0/+2Ok!
- Myztry, on 07/20/2008, -0/+2What a lovely shade of algae. But what type of algae are in the pools.
Locally we have outbreaks of Blue Green Algae and it's quite toxic to humans.
I think they treat it with Copper Suplhate from memory. - inactive, on 07/20/2008, -6/+8looks fake in a way.... that said, i still want to go there some day
- Halsfield, on 07/20/2008, -0/+2crimson tide goes inland, where does it stop?

- kirkness, on 07/21/2008, -0/+1or a Dog Food factory.
- cephelo, on 07/20/2008, -0/+1If you do any basic research on salt ponds you'd quickly find that the hues change as the salinity increases and include bright red hues and brown/orange hues as seen in your Google maps link.
- Gnar04, on 07/20/2008, -0/+1NEXT?
lucky..... - Halsfield, on 07/20/2008, -3/+4uh oh, someone expressed an opinion better digg him down? seriously, what was the thought process behind that bury?
- Ramble, on 07/20/2008, -0/+1Sewage plants aren't that bad. Try living next to a pig farm.
- kirkness, on 07/21/2008, -0/+1i guess. when bands play at Shoreline Amphitheater (Mountain View) the tour schedule always says "San Francisco"

- akula89, on 07/20/2008, -0/+1implied "not from bay area, dig down"
buried. - tripledjr, on 07/21/2008, -0/+1Dear poster realize that a straight view from a satellite camera will look much different then an angled closer shot from a professional quality camera.
- TCrux, on 07/20/2008, -0/+1I actually thought this was a post about gayness. Well, here's to stupidity
- JoshDaFink, on 07/21/2008, -0/+0Wow, beautiful. I always take them for granted (and roll up the windows due to smell) when driving through them, nice to see a different side.
http://www.uofinocomment.com - starbreiz, on 07/29/2008, -0/+0Yup! I can see some of these from my office in Alviso, which is just at the south tip of the Bay.
