The setting is the Salar de Uyuni, a huge salt flat. The subject appears 
to be where the salt is being mined. You can see where each pile of salt 
is in the rectangular are out of which it was cut.

As you say, Wayne provides some wonderful images of the altiplano, but 
is somewhat laconic about it. Roger Wesson visited some of the same area 
in 2005 and provides much explanatory text accompaning images of many of 
the same places & things on this and the surrounding pages of his site.
