Baikal Palm. Baikal Lake - the biggest, clearest, deepest lake of all!:)

critisize please!

Classic composition, good tones. I like how the sharp ground contrasts the soft sky.

I love how these tree, half dead half live, is placed just one step from you and the vastity of the landscape. And I love that cloudy black sky and the white sand.

Eugene, CUX - thank you for your time and comments here!:)

It looks really great. The dark sky is adding to the surreallism look of the picture as are the dead trees, but then the camper (?) brings you back to earth.

The area is beautifully barren. I like it so much.

!!!

KAI, KAY, Sergei iz Ukrain - Thank you so much!:)

Admirable for its compositional balance!

Hello, Sandeha!:) glad to see you.:)

Brilliant but so sad.. A pitiful scene. It's commendable of you to bring it out with such visual clarity and impact.

Thank you, Okan!:)

Rusla very moody. Tell me how cold is the lake? I spent 6 days at Issyk Kul in early August and the water was a bit cool.

How do you do, Perry!:) It depends - in July the highest temperature can be 22 Celcium and the lowest 4 Celcium. It is a really extrordinary place on Earth. May be next year I am going there again - I want to shoot more pictures since I did not stay there long enough. If you want to know how - I will send you a link for foreigners who want to travel to Baikal.:)

sounds a professional work, beautiful picture

very well executed. great scale of greys.
