Hi Christian,
your shot belongs to my taste! The low PoV and the very good framing are the proper for the situation. The air fondled the water in the depth and created a beautiful effect! I like the natural colours and the sharpness!

Regards,
Athanasios.

Hello Christian,
I really like the way the trees reflect on the clean water surface. And the bunch of grass in the foreground that disturbs its monotony and allows the eye to rest on it for a while is also a very good idea. Let alone the composition safely leading the viewer´s sight to the high peaks far in the background... Good job.

Hello Christian,
Nice transparent glassy water with wonderful reflections. Sharp & clear photo with pleasant light colors & saturation. I can see a group of hikers & their reflections too. Just realized that you are using a new camera. Congratulations! Regards. Latiff.

Christian,
This is a beautifully composed photo! The reflection gives the shot nice balance and depth. The clear water in the foreground give the shot a 3-D appearance. The texture provided by the wind on the rear part of the lake breaks up the symmetry nicely. The lighting and colors are great with excellent sharpness and DOF.

Hi Christian,

I like the quality of the new camera. The pictures look nicer. but I think you may still need a polarizer to enhance the sky. Nice point of view with the mirror like surface giving depth. The water is clear, just like in most lakes in the Rockies. Nice work...Did you use manual or auto mode for this image?

Hello Christian,
You bring us here a very peaceful and quiet place.
The composition is very well thought of and enhances the nice perfect reflection. The color of the water is a mix of blue and green reminding the landscape. I like as well the inclusion of these small blades of grass in the foreground to introduce the scenary.
Have a nice day.
Best regards, Christian

Hi Christian,
Simplicity pays, only we don't believe. See, the beauty of natural colours and their relections in water....though the added warmer tones have an effect on the end results too.
Thanks for sharing this composition.

Hello Christian

At the moment you post this shot,I wanted to do a WS,enhacing the colors...nothing special,but stopped after all.
I liked the picture from the begining,for the natural colors,the reflection which looks so nice.
The place must be a "paradise"...5 lakes,mountains,nature and it`s beauty.
Nice view and framing.

Kind regards,
Lucian

Christian,
in less then 48 hours I will be in this area. Looking over the map and making up my mind where to go and what I won't be able to see I stumbled over this lyric name of Valley of the Five Lakes. At the end I decided that I won't go there. Your image is challenging my decision. The same shot later or earlier on the day should give an outstanding landscape photograph.
