superb image. In another challenge this may have ribboned I think. I love the colors especially in the water.

Looks cold! The whites in the shot are great - I have a hard time not blowing them out all the time.

Excellent image, great POV and color.
03/15/2009 10:11:49 AM
I'm hoping to leave comments on as many photo's in this challenge as possible... out of (currently) 1115 images, I gave 94 of them an 8. Your image was one of those 94, placing you well within the top 10% for this challenge.

Lots of sunset pics in this challenge, but this is one of my favourites.The lower sky has a lovely warm glow, the upper sky a completely contrasting deep blue. There is just enough foreground detail to keep some interest, the the water looks tempestuous. Nice shot.

Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

Great contrast of colors here, and the rocks and snow almost seem to be the difference between winter and summer.
03/15/2009 07:57:22 AM
Great composition
03/15/2009 06:27:56 AM
Very nice image. It's good to see a few "great" images. This is a perfect reflection of your abilities as a photographer.
03/15/2009 06:13:12 AM
very pretty, so crisp and clear, and such vibrancy in the skies color
03/15/2009 05:32:56 AM

Boy does that look cold. Nice colors in water & rock.
03/14/2009 02:36:50 PM
Hi. You have a nice combo.
03/14/2009 01:28:38 PM
Gorgeous clarity and a refreshing scene.
03/14/2009 12:20:26 PM
Just fabulous. The colors, shapes, depth are wonderful. A tad overblown for me on the central light rocks, but top 100 for sure.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 06:09:44 AM
I'm cold just looking at it. Nice work.
03/13/2009 05:36:43 PM
wow, it looks like there's a face in the water on the bottom right.

great color
03/13/2009 05:20:14 PM
This is an extraordinary photo. Among best in class. Where was it taken?
03/13/2009 04:24:45 PM
Very pretty shot.
03/13/2009 03:26:37 PM
Nice colors. I think the horizon should have either been at the lower or upper 1/3 instead of the middle. Maybe shot from closer to the ground/rocks?

Another outstanding formula DPC landscape :)
03/13/2009 08:43:53 AM
perfect 's' composition and great pov, 8
03/13/2009 07:42:26 AM
This is beautiful! I love the brightness and warmth from the picture, that is especially well done because that water is anything but warm I'm sure.
03/13/2009 07:37:56 AM
very pretty
03/13/2009 06:29:25 AM

this is amazing love the colors and the shot
03/12/2009 09:10:11 PM
The vivid colours really make this picture stand out! The sky is so blue. The golden rocks set off the chalk blue water beautifully.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 09:08:10 PM
Very vivid color. Nice border.
03/12/2009 06:35:01 PM
great colours in the rocks
03/12/2009 02:00:34 PM
Beautiful. I like your use of composition to draw my eye into the frame. Great color capture to provide a wonderful feel to a sky that I would normally find uninteresting. Well seen, very well captured.

Great shot. I can feel the bite in the air. - 9
03/12/2009 07:32:29 AM
Beautiful scenery well captured. On my monitor there seems to be slighly to much saturation on blue and cyans. It would also be great to see more details in the glaciers and snow under Cerro Torre.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 05:21:00 AM
The water is so clear and blue.
03/12/2009 01:39:29 AM
Great colors.
03/11/2009 06:59:49 PM
Beautiful
03/11/2009 04:54:25 PM
Ya know - this is so perfectly captured I feel like I'm there. Love the color of the water and rocks and then BAM look what's waiting in the BG. Nicely done.

03/11/2009 04:41:31 PM
Well done - image is a beauty.
03/11/2009 02:26:29 PM
Beautiful scene.
03/11/2009 12:47:59 PM
good colour
03/11/2009 12:40:46 PM
The big frame pushes the picture in to much for me but I love the colors and scene.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 12:02:55 PM
that water must be fridgid...really great balance of colors and tones...nothing blown out, clean crisp focus...wonderful...
03/11/2009 08:39:09 AM
nice shot
03/11/2009 06:17:20 AM
Nice use of varied foreground to add to the interest. I love it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 12:33:49 AM
lovely colours, the red in the rocks really add to this shot
03/10/2009 09:23:18 PM
The sky is flawless... I really like how it contrasts with the color of the water. The rock in the foreground is detracting from the overall feel of the image for me, though.
