This was taken along with the other images, but this was just before sunset.

The pools are really that colour, teeming with plankton and all sorts of life.

This is an hdr, from 3 exposures, shot in raw.

Very well done. You have executed nicely. The toning from FG to BG is perfect. An effective effect of HDR. Congrats...

With Regards,

Buddy

Hi Jacques,

Amazing shot, the whole thing looks like something from an alien world, the lighting and colours are perfect.

Cheers

HI Jacques,
It looks a bit unreal, like a dream -the risk of HDR- but it is a really good POV... And yes, I imagine beginning of life should have looked like the pools of your picture... TFS, Marta

Hello Jacques,

I see beautifully contrasting colors in an exotic landscape "falling" toward the sunball.
I believe your photo: this is the craddle of life on earth.

Best regards,
Attila

Jacques
Well done. Love your HDR work. The glow on the rocks is complimented by the last rays of the sn.
