What a wonderful water... I really like those colors. Nice DOF too. Pity the pic is so tiny and the frame so big.

What a strange color the ocean (lake?) has. I like how different parts of this picture seem to be from totally different worlds - there are large shifts in tone between the different parts. I don't know if I agree about the DOF, I think having also the grass sharp would improve the picture. Hard to get a shot like that without tripod I guess.

Great colors. I've seen this color in lakes receiving melt water from glaciers, don't know if that is the case here.

It's debatable whether the grass being sharp or not detracts. It's kind of being used like a frame here where I think the main focus is on the unusal color of the water and then the forested shore and mountains beyond. Sharper grass might take the focus away from what I mentioned.

Overrall a great shot, definitely caught my eye

Wow Britt!,
Vilka häftiga färger - både på vatten och gräs!, och himlen och framförallt bergen är perfekta, och land i mitten skärmar av mot vattnets färg med hög kontrast.
Myyycket tjusigt!

Superbe contraste des couleurs avec ce blé jaune, ce lac bleu clair et ces montagnes...
On dirait qu'il y a 5 lignes de couleurs !!
Bien vue
