The Classic PostCard shot on an ideal day. Taken slightly below the visitors deck (amongst the human detritus thrown by uncaring tourists). Early work/experience for me with 4x5 Velvia 100F. Comments/feedback welcome.

Glacier-fed lakes are often that colour. Like many of the lakes around here.

Except for the shape of the mountains it could BE here!

Nice picture anyway. :smile:
 
Thanks Ole! Yes, I do remember that same colour in the Lakes of Norway during my trip there in 1977 (now I am dating myself!). What I loved about the fjords in particular is that the mountains emerged straight up from out of water, without an undulation. Very dramatic. Thanks for the memory.
