They are spectacular phenomena !!!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

These natural reservoirs of water are of various size. Sometimes they disappear during heavy drought or in an area of the porous rocky bottom. Their colours origin from minerals of surroundings, not from reflections of sky or clouds, and they are, in fact, some kind of mineral solution. A rich blossom of some microorganisms like cyanobacteria or algae can also colour these waters. A range of their colours is from white, through grey, light green, dark green, light blue, red, purple, up to dark brown, even black.
PRESENTING THEM WE MUST REJECT COLOURS COMING FROM ANY REFLECTIONS !

Some pictures made by our SP colleagues are very special. A turquoise colour of lakes is probably most frequent in mountains.
Thank you, Alex, for your interest !!!
Have nice moments !!!

Thanks Romuald for this beautiful Album. The mix of colors, and the parameters of the non-reflective photos make for a challenging opportunity. I love high mountain lakes.
