I see back to the landscape shot Tan! This one is indeed beautiful though. A nice reflection, with the snow-capped peak in the middle of the frame. I like the autumn colours in this shot, gives it a different feel.

Regards,
David

Hi Tan;

Amazing reflections and I love the rich reds on the right- amazing. I personally think the composition would be MUCh stronger though if cropped out about a finger and halfs width off the bottom- which would move the horizon off centre. The whole image as currently presented seems very centered. A small suggestion to make a good shot - even better (in my opinion of course).

All the best,
- Dan

P.S.- Where are you travelling to mate?

Beautiful mirror reflection, unique shapes. I love the golden autumnal trees and the contrast of the summery green trees next to them.

Perfectly mirrored. Beautifully saturated colours, lovely image!

Greetings,

Natalia

Merhaba Tan Bey
Tek kelimeyle mukemmler bir fotograf. Paylasiminiz icin tesekkurler.

Resit

Hi Tan,

Strong perspective that leads our eyes in the middle of the shot and keep them into it.

The mix of orange trees and blue sky is outstanding and there's plenty of this mix to really enjoy this scene forever. Good use of the topography to create and X composition with a strong focal point.

Light is generous on the largest chunk of land, while setting the other in darkness. But I think that this shift of contrast balance the composition, that would have been too much centred if light would have been equal on each side.

Greetings!

André

This is a perfect mirrored picture. Only the soft ripples on the water say it is real. The colours are simply fantastic as it is the light. Well done.
I hope to see nice pictures from the wonderful city called Lisbon.
Antonio

Wow Tan. Perfectly symmetrical, Wonderful reflection, clarity, and sharpness. A bit of noise in the bottom but of small concern. Wonderful colors of autumn. You are all over the place in the world ... exciting life of constant travel. Happy Holiday.

Best Regards.
Latiff.

PS: I would like to a go at a WS for this image. Hope you don't mind.

Hi Tan, just great photo! Everything is perfect!

TFS and regards,
Philip

You have brought a beautiful mirror. Amazing quality Tan, I love it! I like also the horizontal symmetry.
Have a nice trip, and bring more photos...
Nice job you got!! how many days a year you have as holiday? :-)
cheers
Jorge

Une pure merveille, Tan! Une composition splendide, une lumière et des couleurs incroyables et un effet miroir fabuleux. Bon voyage!
Amicalement
JJ

Simply a classic landscape shot!
Well balanced in terms of light and shade and composition, and you really made the most of these perfect conditions!
Thanks
Brian

Hi Tan...great shot...wonderful details, sharpness and composition.

Roger

Hello Tan , nice pic, very sharp and clear, with interesting differences of textures brought by the reflection. Light and colors are well captured too and your composition, with this large place given to water and sky, reveals the immensity of the place. Well done

Bonfour Tan,
je suisséduit par ce paysage à la magnifique symétrie obtenue par un POV très bas, vraiment judicieux. Les couleurs magnifiques, cette bande d'arbre 'rouille' au milieu de ce bleu.
J'aime beaucoup le ciel.
Profondeur et netteté conjuguées.
Regards.
Daniel.

Hi Tan
Wonderful light, colours and reflections. The wide angle gives great depth and the whole landscape seems luminous. Really beautiful and refreshing. Enjoy your travels and maybe see you soon!
Regards, Susanna

Grüezi Captain,
The wide version is also very appealing, it gives a better impression on how the village is surrounded by the magnifiscent glowing nature, and with the wide angle dynamism the clouds can contribute better to the 3D rendering.
Have a nice trip JY

Wow! Fantastic Autumn colours of gold, contrasting against the blue sky & water, with superb reflections & linear perspective. Tfs!

Fantastic, paradise atmosphere, great POV and effect.
I'm crazy about this photo!!

Hello Tan,

You captured the nature of the Engadin very well. I like especially the autumnal colors and the reflection.

Kind regards - Franco

Eh eh Tan, i've just read your answer to Dan and i check your profile : you are traveling like a japanese !! London Madrid Lisbonne in 3 days ... For this trip i guess you'll take a plane more times than i've took it ever in my life ;)
Have a great vacations in Europe !
This picture, well what to say, except that i'm surprise it still have no green star ... I'm sure that will come soon ;)
Perfect reflexion and symetry, yes this is centered but the wide angle adds all the added value here in that case.
Tremendous one

Wow, this is an awesome shot! The reflection is perfect, almost like a mirror, so that we get a double image. I like the colour too, particularly the bright orange leaves on the trees. Great cloud pattern always helps too! Nice work!

Hello Tan, this photo is absolutely stunning. I wonder what has taken you so long to share it with us. Lucie

hi tan
fantasric landscape, what a moment you caught there ! In such a remote place and marvelous one,

everything is in place for a magnificent landscape .

Hi Tan,
I knew that the Silvaplana was beautiful; I helped politically to keep it that way; I did my PhD work on the Larch budworm that turns the Larch trees prematurely red in summer. But your picture is more beautiful than what I knew about the region. You really did it! My compliments.
Best regards
Dietrich

Hello Tan,
Simply fantastic !!!
Greetings.

kaybolmayın yine ortadan, laptop ne işe yarıyor yahu???... nefis bir kare yine... landscape konusunda üstünüze yok zaten ne diyeyim ki...

Hi Tan,
This is an absolutely stunning image. I love the reflections and symmetry with awesome golden autumn colors. An amazing composition perfectly presented. TFS. Gerald

Hi Tan,

It's so wonderful, I don't find easily the words. I like the net light, the clearty and sharpness perfect, the composition with the amazing reflection. A perfect sky, a great place and a very intelligent sight for this shot! Congratulations!

Angel.

I have been away for a while, but I am pleased to see that you are still turning in these breathtaking and perfect images, Tan.The strong geometry and the rich colourof this one are wonderful. Regards Kevin

Her zamanki gibi cok guzel, zaten insan senin fotograflarina pek yazacak birsey bulamiyor bunun disinda. Keske okul olmasa da martta ben de gidebilsem. Bi baksam nasil cekiyorsun, nasil bu kadar net oluyor. Graubunden belli ki her mevsim sahane.
Iyi yolculuklar.

This is really fantastic, Tan, very well symmetrically framed with just the right amount of polarization...

Cheers

Hello Tan,

Wonderful mirror-like reflection. All have been said here and all I can do is add another two points.

Have a wonderful weekend and best regards,

Beautiful reflection, colours, point of view: all right!

Hi Tan!

This is an absolutely stunning, incredible landscape photography of the highest quality! Perfectly balanced framing and composition, perfect reflection! Blinding autumn colours and surprising good depth of field for f/3.5, but that goes with the wide angle lens! Anyway, a top quality job! Congratulations!

Hercules

Hello,
Perfect reflection. Great colours and details.
Regards and Well Done.

Bonsoir Tan,

Superbes couleurs, j'adore les petits nuages morcelés qui se reflètent dans l'eau.

Hello Tan
A wonderfully captured landscape
very well done
I like the richness of the colours, very nice symetry
Well done

Daniel
PS; I have problems with my polarizer; I always have a very dark area in the middle of the sky and a lot of noise, is that normal?

Hello Tan
This is another amazing shor from you that i like it very much.I didn't see a few of your shot for a long time.(I was very busy!!!).But i try solve my problem and see shots of my frisnds in TE.Anyway your picture is wonderful and very fantastic from this landscape.Colors and contrast are excellent and nice. Also your cadre selection and framing are superb.

Thanks for sharing this nice picture for us.
Well done.
afshin.

Holy molly! This is an awesome reflection shot. The symmetry is so perfect. The orange trees and the blue sky complement each other nicely, and I think the contrast and sharpness are both perfect too. It almost looks 3D. I'm looking forward to seeing your new shots when you get back from traveling.
Regards,
Ryan
