Hi Leo
I prefer this one before more detail but a small problem with your sharpenning which made a white line between mountain and sky.
Great shot.
Cheers
JP

Superb image, Andreas.
The red colour of water takes my goat!

Hello Andreas,
The white salt gives a perfect dof to the lake and the mountain.
Red and blue are always work perfectly together, and the polariser did the rest.
Rich deep saturated colours, something i really like..!!!

- I love the strange and amazing colours which produce his salants marshes and here even more with the polarizing filter still adds one more to the sky, well done!

Fabulous work, Leo.
The colours of this lake are almost alien, with the rusty red tones of the water. The long depth of field and very low viewpoint give a sense of drama to this image, from the fascinating crysal-like structures of the salt in the immediate foreground, to the stark, barren-looking land and the pretty cloud-studded blue of the sky.
Excellent
Peter

Hi Leo - excellent colors in this shot, esp. the blue and red; the lake looks weird, as if instead of water it was filled with strawberry juice. Very unusual, great photo, TFS, Daniel

Hallo Andreas!
Diese Farben hauen einen ja um. Unglaublich, was die Natur alles auf der Palette hat. Der niedrige Standort der Kamera rückt die Salzkrusten eindrucksvoll ins Bild. Ein tolles Foto!
Grüße aus Siegen!

Superb low POV shot Leo..The rusty red colours of this lake is so unreal...excellent long depth of field. I like the fascinating crystal salt structures of the salt in the FG, leading to the water & then onto the barren hills contrasting with the brilliant blue of the sky.

Hi Andreas,
Your low POV really make this shot worked, together with the vivid colors. The clouds above are almost like the reflections of the salt below. Well done!

Bonjour Andreas;
ciel fantastique d'un bleu intense, les nuages y flottent avec grâce et détachement.
Tout aussi beaux sout les rouges de ces sels dissouts et ces blancs en surface.
Une composition chamarée et bette.
Regards.
Daniel.

Hi Andreas
very interesting gallery you have. I particularly like this shot as it is full of strong colour and contrast. The composition works excellently with good foreground interest and nice detail. The effect of the water is striking and the blue sky balances it off nicely. Well done.

Hi Leo
Excellent composition with the different levels. I like how the white line in the middle balances with the salt in the foreground. The red water is stunning. Looks so like a strange planet.

Nikki
