You've got a beauty here! It looks like a polarizer? The curved line of the shore and pebbles in the foreground add depth and interest.

Hi Shaeri,
A gorgeous view over the lake with such nice, natural colours. The low POV is very well chosen to include the small stones as a nice pattern in the foreground. The composition is splendid too. Great photo work, thanks for sharing!

It is a beautiful view and a very good picture. The colours are excellent, even if the snowy mountain looks a bit over exposed. But, what I really like is the transparent water of the foreground letting us see the stones and their beautiful colours. Well done.

Bonjour Shaeri,
les couleurs sont les vedettes de cette photo, depuis le bleu du ciel, jusqu'aux multiples teintes des cailloux du premier plan.
Une photo qui nous plonge dans une nature pleine de fraicheur.
C'est vraiment joli.
Regards.
Daniel.

Hi Shaeri. Certainly looks like a great place to spend a little time. Well captured, I love the clear water and patterns in the rocks. Good colours and detail. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers, Paul.

Hi Shaeri
great shot. a beautiful compo, very natural colours and perfect light. I like the colour contrast with the sky and the dof in this image, with the earthy tinted sontes in the FG. Good sharpness and nice POV
cheers

Shaeri,
a very beautiful landscape shot with an almost classic composition with the water in the front, the V-shaped background with the mountain placed in between. The use of a polarizing filter might have given a more profound sky as well as more transparency of the water.
Peter

sagar (2410) 2008-03-29 23:49

Hi Shaeri,
This probably the second post of this beautiful lake!!!Really lovely colors , great to see how you have managed with the low POV. The surrounding forest and the snow capped mountain is really fascinating to watch.

Hi Shaeri,
Indeed, very beautiful and absolute worth to stop here and doing some serious photography. Water is crystal clear and can give you an excellent reflection. I like the v-line composition you created here...very nice.
Regards, Henk

kiks (12805) 2008-03-30 3:32

Hi Shaeri, i always like this kind of composition: very low POV showing the stones under water and leading the eyes throug into the mountain. I'm not so shure about exposure at this one. The mountain sims to me overexposed and the DOF not not very well balanced. It is a difficult shot to get right. I must confess that when i try i have the same problem. Maybe you want to take a look at the gellery of 'Cormac' (http://www.trekearth.com/members/Cormac/). He often take this kind of photo's.
I wish you a great sunday and TFS
KIks

Dyerco (10185) 2008-03-30 7:36

Hi Shaeri
I assume you had a polarizer on here as you captured the colourful stones in the FG so nicely. The exposure was well handled although you might want to use the bandaid tool to clone out the dust specks that were on the sensor. Beautiful shot.
Phil

asajernigan (21427) 2008-03-30 7:52

Shaeri,
Your composition is fine here showing the submerged stones in the foreground with the mountains rising in the V in the back. The lighting and colors are great with nice sharpness and detail. The reflection on the clear water gives the shot nice balance and a kind of 3-D look.
TFS,
Asa

Gustaw (21670) 2008-03-30 8:04

It looks beautiful and serene! You captured it from an excellent POV and you used a grwat framing! Thank you for sharing! Regards Stella

feather (51130) 2008-03-30 14:45

It really strikes you just how clear the water is with all the stones visible. The low POV works very well with the mountain slopes leading the eye into the scene. Well done
Kath

trekks (14348) 2008-03-30 17:52

hi Shaeri

I can imagine taking a dip in this cold water.

Wonderful shot of this fascinating view of clear water, pebbles, pines and mountains. So nice for your outdoor adventure to bring back such lovely photo. Did you use ND or PL filter?

TFS, bill

daddo (28748) 2008-03-30 19:45

Someone must have thought a lot of Miss Jenny to name such a marvelous place after her.This is a wonderful panorama Shaeri taken from a most advantageous POV which presents nothing to interrupt our vista. Excellent exposure- the colours are rich and varied. Namaste. Klaudio.

dvlazar (6662) 2008-03-30 19:58

Hey Shaeri -
Great colors in here - this is another amazing lake in the north of America. The graduated blue in the sky is nice, as are the reflections in the water.

Cheers,
Dave

ambar_81 (673) 2008-03-31 4:48

Hi Shaeri,
This is a mind blowing shot from you.POV is superb and I liked most its sharpness.Underwater objects are clearly visible.The view is really enjoyable.

Ambar

jusninasirun (17529) 2008-03-31 6:20

Hello Shaeri. This is one pristine composition with excellent depth and clarity. I like the foreground detail under the clear water with the pines making the perspective along the right bank. Very scenic against the beautiful mountains and spotless blue sky. Well done and best regards. Jusni

Wandering_Dan (3449) 2008-03-31 9:53

Hi, Shaeri -

Lovely shot, well composed and great lighting. The shoreline looks tilted at first, but then I see that it's the curve, not the tilt. Great centering of the mountain between the diagonals, too.

Best,
Dan

PS: Clone stamp can also be used to remove sensor spots, especially against a uniform background. Although, to be honest, I don't see the spots that Phil sees.

gracious (20025) 2008-03-31 10:14

Hello Shaeri,
Truly a beautiful lake well captured and cimposed!

dlevy23 (2018) 2008-03-31 10:35

Hi Shaeri, what a beautiful place!!!, love the low POV and the composition. I feel that there is a little bit of a color cast, but I'm not on my PC right now to fix it and post it!!
great job like usual.

Daniel

JCG (35153) 2008-03-31 11:34

Hi Shaeri,

What a limpid water !!! This landscape is marvellous and the colors are superb, I like much the visual angle which gives a good depth to the image. It is very resting. Thank you Shaeri.

With all my friendships and with soon,

Jean-Charles

Hi Shaeri!
Great shot,taken from a very good low POV.I like the different colored gravel under the surface.Great depth with the mountan in the distance.

jwmunro (286) 2008-03-31 18:12

Hello Shaeri -

It looks like you have a keeper here. Excellent depth in the water and a nice sky to boot. I have been here many times and I have yet to come back with an acceptable image. Well done Shaeri!

Thank you for sharing.

John

avene (12675) 2008-03-31 18:37

beautiful photo, Shaeri, I agree with the other that the V-shaped background and cristal clear water are the two main strong elements here. the low point of view works really well to create a strong feeling of standing right there in the lake :) very nice work, I like it a lot.

with kind regards,
Kristine

Angshu (56760) 2008-03-31 21:08

Hi Shaeri
What I like most about the scene, believe it or not, is the FG, with the pebbles in the clearest shallow waters. Beautiful also is the wide U being formed with the line of trees on the right & the mountain slope on the left. The snow capped peak in the BG completes the beauty of the place. Well done!
Best Wishes
Angshumanda

JPlumb (3159) 2008-03-31 22:33

Very nice shot of this lake Shaeri, the composition is excellent. I like how you've pulled the front stones (under water yet) into the forefront in good sharp focus, while maintaining decent focus through the rest of the shot. The apex between the trees and mountain on the left is a convergence for the snow covered mountain in the rear, all this covered with that great blue sky. Great colour, excellent depth of field, a very enjoyable photograph.

Thanks, John

Hello Shaeri,

Your low POV adds great details and view every time. Excellent look to lake and forest while adding greatly different two mountains and their ridges. Wonderful sky, congratulations.

Hello Shaeri,
wow a very nice and superb view of this lake with the turquoise waters.The low POV create an unbelievable depth of field with the light and the colours to be the main points of your excellent capture.Bravo

Regards,Danos

zmey (7335) 2008-04-03 6:16

hello, shaeri

a beautiful lake portrait. i like the light and your angle. the sky maybe a tad oversaturated (i suspect, a result of wide angle + polarizing filter) for this scene, but it is still very pleasant.

my compliments and TFS

ocskaymarci (2832) 2008-04-04 8:23

Hello Shaeri,
I love so much the high mountains. Hungary doesn't have any now (the highest is 1014m), that's why I like looking at this kind of photos.
It's beautiful, well composed! I like the low POV, the warm colours and the contrast!
TFS!
Cheers,
Marci

japiey (10163) 2008-04-05 1:44

Bonjour,
Belle photo de ce lac superbe avec ces montagnes et glaciers autour. Belle transparence de l' eau qui montre bien ces galets.
Jolies couleurs et bonne netteté, bel effet de ces arbres qui forment une légère courbe qui enmène notre regard vers ce glacier superbe.

Amitiés Thomas

stego (24132) 2008-04-06 16:28

Hi Shaeri,
It's a breath taking mountain view, flawlessly composed. I like the low POV, showing that clear water on the FG, the stones make a beautiful pattern, the forest balancing the mountains and leading the eye to them.
There is a bit of OE on the middle mountain, but that doesn't bother me much. It looks like you had dirt on the sensor, as there is a small spot on the sky, which could be easily disguised in PP.
Regards, José.

AROBN54 (11475) 2008-04-07 6:55

Hi, Shaeri,
This is beautiful! I love the way the trees on the left angle down to draw the eye into the shot with that well lit mountain in the distance. I also like the way the water is so clear you can see the rocks beneath it. WOnderful light and color, fabulous view. This is a great shot! Many thanks and warmest regards,
Shelly
