Lago Nordenskjöld - Torres del Paine National Park Chile

So you have seen my photos of Peyto Lake in Alberta, Canada right? Look at the color of the lake. It has competition all the way in South America in the Chilean Patagonia. It's also a lake fed by Glaciers! Tada!

The sediments and minerals floating on the water reflect back the blue spectrum of light to create this color you see now.

Have you been to Patagonia?

nice picture

This is breathtaking! Thank you for sharing it!

Looks very inviting to swim in that lake, but we would feel we were spoiling nature. Also, we might have a dip when it's a bit warmer. It looks like it was a cool day, was it?

Oh no, you definitely don't want to swim there! LOL. I got extremely sick from this trip. Cold, wet, and extreme wind :)

LOL thanks for the tip. Hopefully, we will remember your comment if and when we visit Lago Nordenskjöld in Chile. Strange, how it has a Scandinavian type name in a place so far away from Scandinavia (Sweden/Norway/Finland etc. - for those who don't know).

Yeah it's the settlers, they're from Scandinavia I believe.

Very good Landscape shot!

I lived in Chile for 4 years! Just moved back last yeat to the states! But it's absolutely beautiful there! Seriously, breathtaking views!!

Especially the Patagonian region.

Awesome photography. Photos keep moments

Remarkable photography of a very picturesque scene @adonisabril

This was just a snap on the phone :) I usually chase weather and that's what gives the drama :)

Oh really? If that's what you can produce with your phone, I am very keen to see what you can do with your camera @adonisabril (Following)

the scenery is so beautiful my friend ..
