Croatia – Waterfall #2 – Krka National Park

Krka_A0004715-Gerry_PacherI photographed this second scene like the first one during sunset. The turquoise water is just a result of a crystal dark blue sky. By the way, I decided for a very long exposure to increase the structure of the grass and leaves.

Enjoy it.

Switzerland – Greifensee – Pastel Morning Pier

Ticino: Symmetry River

Do you like abstract stone / rock formation? Then you should visit the Verzasca Valley (Switzerland / Ticino). It's a wonderful place where you will find turquoise water and incredible rocks. 
By the way, this is just a mirrored photograph ... nothing else.
