Arup, a masterpeace IMO. Congrats. Bw, Volker

Lovely done, Arup, ... really beautiful shot. Regards.

a wonderful capture (6)

What makes this interesting to me is the vast natural beauty combined with the obvious human influence.  The cairns lead the viewer nicely through the scene (you have to wonder if the builder got their feet wet or has this lake grown since they were erected?).  I also like the sky... dramatic and contrasty.

In my opinion, I would like to see a little less reflection on the lake as I think it would improve the contrast between the cairns and the water, adding drama to the foreground that matches that of the sky.  Also, although it may just be the lower bit depth of the jpeg upload, the glaciated area in the valley appears to be blown to my eye.

All-in-all, a very beautiful landscape.  Well done.

Arup, Thank you very much showing us , one of the highest lakes in the world.I congratulate you for reaching 17000ft and taking this superb shot . Very good perspective, exposure and tonal quality. Would love to see a panoramic view of this famous lake.

It is awsome dear Arup,congrats

Hi Arup.  This is the kind of scene I would love to find, but have yet to find it.  Maybe if I go to Jasper or Banff.  The perspective is fantastic, and the mountains in the background very majestic!  The stacked stones in the foreground tell a story, and make the viewer wonder how this came about.  This is a real visual treat, Arup!  All the best.
