BLACK EYES

Is the anticipation ON? While we are all waiting for the fall color to drop, I'm enjoying myself editing some landscape photos from one of the Montenegro’s natural wonders called the Black Lake. This place is so beautiful that I'm not sure how to put that in to words so I hope that this photo will do the justice to this natural gem. In Serbian history it has a mythical place and the stories were told about it for the centuries back. The legend says that after one of the Serbian most celebrated saints was wrongfully accused of stealing, he than unleashed the fury of the mountain water to punish the locals and flood them. The Black Lake lies at the foot of Međed Peak at the 1416m (1364ft) above the sea level and it is surrounded with the thick layers of the black pine. The woods cast the dark black shadow that make the lake color turn almost black. What do you think?
