The view from the 'Ovoo' across the lake. (I've already uploaded an image of the 'Ovoo', or stone pile).

Lake Khovsgol is a gorgeous Lake near Khatsgal not far from the Russian border, and about 200 km north west of Ulan Bator.

Wonderful landscape with perfect colours and light. Like the tree on the left which gives a nice balance. How high is this hill you're standing on?
Best wishes,
Achim

Hello Chris,
A well composed landscape with good framing from the overhanging tree. Very good clarity, though the colours don't quite seem 'natural' to my eyes.

Hello Chris,

Tu as saisi un joli paysage depuis un point de vue très bien vu !
Par contre, je trouve l'image trop surexposée !
En sous exposant, tu aurais obtenu un ciel tout de même plus profond et le vert de l'arbre aurait été plus fort ! Il manque également un peu de netteté pour rendre l'image captivante !
Je trouve toutefois la composition appropriée avec cet arbre en premier plan qui permet de donner un point d'accroche !
A+

Hi Chris,
good high POV and the inclusion of the tree adds depth and a feeling for the distance. The shadow line of the hill and the trees is nice and the shades of the water are just great captured. Looks like a bit harsh light.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hi Chris,
Good choice for this high pov, well this tree and foreground and interesting depth with this lake landscape, good colours also.

Hi Chris. Wonderful view. Well composed, taking in the lake through the branches of the tree adds good depth. Well considered photo and thanks for sharing.

Hi Chris
The colors are a bit different today but that doesn not detract from a beautiful capture with very good perspective and a wide view

Hi Chris,
A clever composition for this view over the lake that has such a pleasant blue tone. Excellent inclusion of the tree in the foreground along with the diagonal of the hill. The light is lovely too, thanks a lot for sharing!
Regards,
Lars
