Good detective work Andy. So... is there a tag for salt flats and what colour would it be rendered as if there was one, or should one argue that there is water involved (if a bit salty) and so natural=water is ok.
I think I will add a note to a few of the ponds that say that they are salt flats and leave it to others to finesse the tagging later.
