Fantastic atmosphere, great magical colours, I love the mist in the back.

Hi Lukasz,
Mysterious blue lagoon rising steam. The contrast between the bule and green in the foreground is really beautiful.
The light on the dreen is also exquisite.
Have a nice day, Hisashi

Hi Lukasz, i just found this 'beauty' at your gallery! What a wonderful composition. I love the fresh greens and the aquablue refleting into the steam and also like the combination of the textures. The filters did a good work here.
Best regards
KIks
