the travel guide says this scene is the best photographic site ever - you cannot take a bad picture. They are right. The colors are like this in real life.

Very little editing - curves, crop, slight level, saturation,

Thanks to all for the comments -- I had the lake name wrong in the title - Peyto Lake and it's really that color!

Wow that bought back some memories when I saw this great photograph. I visited this place back in 1988. The title had me confused until I read your post challenge comments.

I've seen photos of this lake before and the color always amazes me. I hope others don't think you've enhanced it's color - very nice photo.
