Ursa Major reflected in the waters of the the Bonneville Salt Flats near the Utah/Nevada border.

The bed of a prehistoric lake that once covered almost half of Utah, of which the Great Salt Lake is the final puddle. After rains a thin layer water accumulates on the hard surface forming an almost perfect reflection, one of the Earth's largest mirrors. Standing in the thin water at night the stars can literally be seen beneath your feet.
