Красиво, умиротворенно, качественно, но не впечатляет.

[3] He-heh As a matter of fact, I have seen it On another site. And found it exquisite. One of my all time favorite photos, no doubt. This is part of a mini-series, which I hope Alexander shares with rest of the folks at Photoforum.

this is just one of those places i`ve heard of and will unfortunately probably never see
your picture portrays it in such a way that it looks indeed immense - the water edge melts into the mountain range and the mountains and the skies seem to be one and the same because of the colours they both display
yet if the viewer focuses on the bird because of the position of the bird the lake - which they say is the world`s deepest lake and the largest freshwater lake on the eurasian continent - seems at the same time `small`
so then the picture is actually made up of two distinct parts that constantly challenge one another and the viewer`s eye - the right-hand-side half that makes the lake look limitless and therefore overwhelming and the left-hand-side half with the bird turning this excess of water into something reasonable and familiar respectively
all because of a well-incorporated - if only involuntarily - illusion
