This is one of those 'once in a lifetime' shots. This is the photo, nothing was done to it at all. Just click and this is the result. I loved the soft fog laying around the mountains, causing the whole photo to be softened.I was quietly driving in the countryside, watching the sun that was about to set. Suddenly, in the distance, I saw this small lake and the sun was about to 'escape' so I pulled over very quickly, took a few shots at random, just knowing it was "the" moment, feeling the silence of the end of the day approaching, feeling comfort, peace, love of all things in the world around me, and here is the result. How beautiful life can be!!

Most excellent photo, Verena. Don't you hate driving into a sun like that? I hope you didn't have to do that. I like that small lake and the mountains in the distance. Very nice natural scene.

It is one of those shots Verena. Your timing was spot on. Don't you like the ones that take and edit themselves?

Amazing and beautiful. I never have my camera on me when a moment like this arises :) I was a little distracted by the con trail tho.

Ooo.. this is magical, Verena! I too, love the misty fog over the mountains, and the brilliant lighting and how it's reflecting on the lake! Those colours are glorious!! Truly beautiful sight, and your narrative brought a big smile! :) Thank you!
