Description
For one reason or others, I find this picture so lovely that I can't even crop. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.=========================================
Taken in Switzerland around the Interlaken area.
=========================================
Now upon a second thought, I realize that you might be wondering: this seems to be such a plain picture. What does she like about this so much?
Actually, I intended to have experimental shots to create contrast, and motion on seemingly flat surfaces. I find this experiment quite successful in this shot. I particularly like how the frozen water-fall on the mountain gives the picture motion; the white snow and black pine trees give it contrast.
Hopefully that explains my satisfaction with this picture.
=========================================
any comment's welcome

That looks lonely and desolate - and at the same time peaceful!

thank you. I'm particularly proud of it, because I captured this on a moving train, and it is presented here without any cropping or change, other than tilting, of course.

That's fab! Taking picture from moving objects are always almost impossible, save for airplanes where you have such great distances. You must've used some very fast shutter time to not have that one blurred.

despite how it looks, it was actually quite far away, and believe me, I had many failed attempts.

Wow, this is gorgeous, almost to the point of being surreal (esp. the frozen waterfall). Definitely faving this one.
