James, the blue colour in this high altitude picture is mind-boggling. The sky blue is sky blue but the water blue is indigo.
Then the browns of the earth and the white on the shore of the lake make such a striking collage of colours.
The straight line contours too make this image a unique one.
Wow, what wonderful work you have been doing in the past!
Thanks and regards.

Hi James,

I love the symmetry of this photograph. The shapes and colors are magnificent. The snow covered mountain is perfect in the center. Chile is on my list of places yet to see.

wow....Reminds me a bit of Tahoe on a clear day...but Tahoe is only 6200 feet and I'm not sure how that works but I know I get a suntan much quicker...and this image is remarkable for its colours..I had not thought of things this way before seeing this!

PS Let me know how video turns out. I am doing another with more of the geology in it.

Hello James,
Increible sencillez de composición, pero qué magnificencia, me encanta ese lugar del altiplano, llama la atención ver agua en el desierto más seco del mundo. Excelente trabajo

The colours are so bright and beautiful, it is a fantastic landscape once more! I love the simplicity and the composition, just some lines sliding in the frame yet composing a panorama to remember all your life. The thin atmosphere gives brilliant light like I never seen in my life, superbe! Thank you James,

You "thought" they were abstract did you now? Well, there isn't much "think" about it. It is definitely abstract. It is amazing. Was the water really that blue? It doesn't matter because it makes such a richly colored image. Love all those triangles...

Hi James,
Need I say anything more? Simply outstanding. Oh.......what colours and layers. The scene is just magnificent and you have portrayed it in all its glory. It is a visual delight. Excellent POV and composition.

Hello James,
What a beautiful and 'clean' capture of this fascinating landscape in lovely colours. I expect that's salt by the edge of the water? Does the salt also affect the colour of the water? Amazing that you'd find birds here.
Very interesting and a very fine composition.
Many thanks, Ulla

Hello James,
What an amazing view. A landscape where you can loose your soul. It might escape to this mix of lines and colours which appear almost unreal. Bravo for this outstanding picture.
Have a nice day

Hi James

Sorry i haven't had any time for TN recently :( and i only found a small break today to attend to some of the superb posts i missed lately...

This is simple and sooo very beautiful!
Yes, it really does have a minimalistic abstract feeling for it, yet it still present something you could talk a lot about...how great is that?! :)
I like the symestrical composition here and i think it works great in such cases.
The fact that every place comes with it's own different color makes this look like modern or contemporary art painting...really beautiful!

Looking at the facts, i realise how high this actually is and how simple life actually is there...a place of serenity, of silence and of distance from all the daily routine. And that exactly what this photo inspires!
A beauty in all aspects!

Bravo and TFS

Very striking image James, what's not to like?
I think the the "deliberate" symmetry of your composition, combined with the dramatic colors, take this one out of this world..and beyond :)
Glad you are here at TN, you've brought a breath of fresh air to the "landscape" here.
