[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This photo was taken somewhere between Arequipa and Puno in my first (and hopefully not the last) travel to Perú. I dont know where this lake is, just that it was there to show how the sky and the water in cleaner when you are more than 4.000 meters over the sea level. I think I cannot forget this blue, the same one I encountered later on at the Titikaka Lake. I did this travel as a companyon of a person, my sister, that wanted to visit this country but she had not experience in travels. It was a worthy trip for both but this is another and personal story. Thanks.

Hi Miguel,
I like very much Sea, blue water and sky and also landscapes. You did a good capture here with a nice blue and white sky with a mirroring water reflections in the beautiful lake. Colors well satured, good management of light and a excelent enquadrement of the scenery. Good point of view and perspective and a well composed landscape picture.

Well done and congratulations.
Fernando

Hola Miguel,
Indeed, it's a marvellous landscape with a gorgeous sky and colourful reflection in the lake.
I went to Peru, but unfortunately, didn't go to these beautiful lakes...
Thanks for sharing it,

Regards,
Ricardo

Miguel
Wonderful colours here, and a sense of drama to. As a visitor to Arequipa I can appreciate the scenery. Many lakes abound in this region so I'm not too sure which one it is too, but an excellent job nevertheless.

Hola Miguel.
Desde luego que tanto el color azul del cielo como sobretodo el azul reflejado en el agua son impresionantes.
Pero, y no sé si coincidirás conmigo, está un poco más oscura de lo que debería.
Me imagino que la luz complicaba un poco la foto en ese sentido: cielo y agua impresionantes, pero un pelín oscura.
Igualmente, seguro que es uno de esos viajes que no se olvidan (como dices en la nota). El viaje y el lugar.

Un saludo.

Oi Miguel, what a pleasant, peaceful scene you got here with a beautiful sky. I would feel very small if I were there, I guess, those beautiful mountains, and those out of this world clouds.
I know it's not a disgrace anymore to have a tilt in your images nowadays, but still I have to get used to water running to one end of the picture.

Didn't we have an appointment at Machu Picchu sometime?
Take care, Rinie

beautiful reflections and color tones Miguel! pity that you tilted the sky... or you had one drink too many...? haha

Hola Miguel
Que le paso a esta foto?? que se vacia el charco. Bueno no pasa nada eso tiene arreglo.
Oscora o no Oscura? bueno tambien depende de los reglages de cada pantalla. pero la foto con dos o tres arreglitos me parece muy buena ;-)
Sabes a nmi tambien me da la impresion que lo ultimo que pongo no vale mucho, pero creo que eso es bueno quiere decir que queremos mejorar y que ciertos fallos se deben corregir, y para mi es un signo que pasas una etapa y mejoras. A mi me gustan tus fotos.
Un saludo
Toni

Hola Miguel.

Joder vaya vista!!!!! Desde luego debió de ser una auténtica pasada el poder ver algo así y, todo sea dicho también, chungo de subir un rato no?

El cielo y su reflejo en el agua son brutales!!

Saludines, Oscar

Hi Miguel

Apart from a slight lack of brightness / contrast, this image is superb. Wonderful reflections, superb color, good sharpness, & an interesting landscape. Good work!

This is certainly a fantastic landscape, Miguel! Amazing view, pure nature, excellent colours and contrast, great sky. Good work!
Gracias...
