How to take mirror reflection photos in Uyuni?

For perfect mirror reflection photos, go in the rainy season, set your camera lens almost touching the water’s surface, and make sure your subjects wear vividly coloured clothing so they stand out against the sky.

This visual trick performs best on totally windless days where the water stays perfectly calm. Lowering the camera angle removes the horizon line, so it becomes hard to tell where the sky finishes and the ground starts. Your guide usually assists with the setup; they know which viewpoints deliver the most surreal results.
