Only in shallow water, where these bacteria are slightly less, the water is no longer bright red, but orange. As a result, from the accumulated photons, the pigmentation of this amazing bacterium changes towards red color and millions of bacteria of the cyano species formed in the alkali of Lake Natron give a deep red color to all water surfaces. The primary such organism is the cyanobacteria, a tiny bacterium that, like plants, absorbs light through photosynthesis. Lake Natron (Lake Natron) translates as "red", because of its special color, which is given to it by some microorganisms that appear when the level of salinity and alkalinity increases excessively. How exactly these birds, bats and other animals died is not known. This alkalinity preserves these creatures for eternity. Nick Brandt writes in his new book that the petrified creatures around the lake are preserved thanks to a constant pH of 9 to 10.5. The consequences of this rare chemical phenomenon were reflected by photographer Nick Brandt in his book "On the Torn Land". A rare occurrence caused by the lake's chemical composition, which leaves behind a horror-movie-like petrified creature. On the territory of Tanzania, there is Lake Natron, the waters of which contain substances that contribute not only to the death of animals that touch the surface of the reservoir, but also to their petrification. In addition to the bones, the "salted" feathers of the dead bird have been preserved.
