Stuart Chapman
This has a real feel to it. Well lit but with an overhanging sense of darkness like the weather is just about to change – all captured so well in the shot. Love the small pool headed out to the lake and the softness of its reflections.
Globalphotos replied
Thanks Stuart, it’s a great spot to shoot. Had to avoid the various holes in the ground with boiling mud and spitting water, bit of a challenge lol The weather changed on the way back to the car, I got drenched :)

Stunning shot Varinia!! Feels like the calm before the storm, the wind has died, the lake is smooth as glass, the clouds are building. It probably pored like crazy within about ten minutes after taking this!!
