Well, Pierre, we're all suckers for reflection photos, and this is a great one; but what sets this image apart is the dramatic sweep of the landscape -- vast and bleak and beautiful all at once.

Super Duper. You could rotate this 180 degrees and it would almost look the same, except then the water would flood the sky. Ha. My bizarre mind working overtime.
I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

Très belle photo.
La réflexion engendre une symétrie parfaite.
Il est surprenant de voir que l'image réfléchie dans l'eau a pris une teinte verte pour la terre ? Algues dans l'eau ?
Absorption du bleu ?
Très peu d'algues à mon souvenir... Je pense qu'à cette altitude, les lumières et les réflections sont très différentes qu'au niveau de la mer.
Merci Gérard :-)
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

Breathtakingly beautiful Pierre. This looks wonderful on my widescreen :)
I love the depth perception that you captured. The clouds appear so 3 dimensional and the colors are incredible! What a beautiful place this must be to visit. You are very gracious to share all of these wondrous images with hose of us who will never have a chance to see them except through the lens of your camera. I have enjoyed the entire series so very ,very much!
thank you for the images my friend ;=)
And, more importantly, we now understand why it is called the sacred lake!
A 10 in my book, at least...
