Glacial water is amazing isn't it?
I love the composition in this... the cloud in the top right balances the dark rock in the bottom left perfectly.

This is, flat out and completely beautiful.
I'd consider you very, very lucky to have witnessed something so breathtaking, and I thank you for allowing me to do the same.
The colors, the lighting, the clouds, the rocks, the sea, it's all amazing. This is gorgeous. Great, great job.

You have an excellent photographic eye. I love the contrast between the rock, the water and the sky. The vastness of the lake is so welcoming and calm. And it's like the clouds are just fighting to invade the blue sky. Wonderful throughout. I wish you luck in your future photographic endeavors.

Excellent shot!
the color of the water is just so cool!
maybe you could have made the sky a little darker blue...so there would have been two dark zones around this magnificent light part (the water)

d---b In reply to jiwwy-ast [2005-08-21 22:40:20 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for that. I could have changed the colour of the sky, but then that would have (in my opinion) made this a manip, and I like my photos to try and remain as natural as possible, and I couldn't exactly use filters on a 2mp compact!

Thank you though

i like how the light shines in this picture, so the rocks are dark, but the rest of the picture is bright. Very nice, vibrant colors in this one. Nice work!

It's cool how the water seems to cut the picture in half. There's such contrast, it's fun to squint your eyes and just look at the shapes.
