Patagonia - Torres del Paine

Went for a visit to Patagonia in my 2010 archives, and found this jewel. The mountain lake's unique mineral properties have caused this unforgettable blue green color. Developed in October 2014. No creative processing added -- just contrast and saturation. I ignored the original version because the mountains were so hazed up that the foreground color and detail overwhelmed them. In 2010, I didn't know how to deal with this problem...today I do.

 

I am VERY happy with this one. As much as I enjoy shooting and digital processing, there aren't many images I've created that fall in that category. That's why this is so much fun -- right? -- always trying to learn and do better.
