This is a photograph of a wide area of flat mud. The mud is clearly very wet, but not covered in water. In the foreground there is bare mud , with a few channels, like small streams, cut through it. In the middle and back ground the mud has beeen colonized by low growing brown shrubs. This is an area of salt marsh. In places the vegetation cover is split up into little muddy islands surrounded by bare mud.
