5 unusual colors Lakes (Photo Gallery)



In some lakes, water is the color that we used. It can change color depending on some factors, from purple to pink up and gives us a fascinating sight indeed.

Laguna Colorado
Depending on the time of day and temperature, changes color from red to violet. This unusual color is due to tiny algae that produce carotene to protect the strong ultraviolet radiation.
Colorado Lagoon is a salt water lake, shallow (average depth is only 35 cm.)

Kelimutu Crater Lakes - Flores Island, Indonesia.
Kelimutu volcano - this is where there are three different colored crater lakes. Tiwa AtaMbupu lake water usually has a blue tint, and is the westernmost of the three lakes.




The other two lakes, Nuwa Muri Koo Fai Tiwu and Tiwu Ata Polo are separate from the crater wall, and the water in them is usually red and green respectively. Kelimutu volcano is very interesting to geologists because the three lakes are different colors in a single volcano crater.

Lake Ngakoro
Lake of New Zealand has a light green color. This is due to the high content of sulfur and iron.
Five Flower Lake
Five Flower Lake is located in the center Jiuzhaigou, China. Lake color varies from yellow to dark green, but often, the water here is blue culuoarea. This place is shrouded in mystery, while many neighboring lakes water level drops and they are dry, this water level remains constant.

The lake does not freeze in winter, while all neighboring lakes covered with ice. For this reason, the locals have a fear of these places.

The main explanation why the lake never freezes, is present at the bottom of the hot springs, which is confirmed by the appearance of the lake periodically bubbles.

Lake Hillier
This lake is located on the island of Middle Island, which is part of the Recherche Archipelago, which stretches tens of kilometers along the south coast of Western Australia.
Hillier lake water is bright pink.

The lake was discovered in 1802, when British navigator Matthew Flinders decided to stop on an island on the way to Sydney. What a surprise for him when he was among the dense forests of the island, he came across a pink lake!
I research and did not answer the question of the water in Lake Hillier is pink?
