Photographer's Note
Lake Clarée Névache, Hautes-Alpes.
Arrival at Lake Clarée, where all begins! This is where Clarée rises, fueled by a snowfield. At 2433 meters, crystal clear waters are a nice reward. Surprise when arriving, many walkers chose to picnic here, and the most accessible bank was "overcrowded" (there was indeed fifty people or more)! A well-placed rock allowed me to hide the "crowd" while enjoying the lake.
After a short break, we continued our path to the threshold of Rochilles. At 2459 meters, the Rochilles threshold marks the border between the Hautes-Alpes and Savoie. In earlier times, it was therefore a border between the Kingdom of France and the Sardinian States. Marker No. 92, installed in 1814, materializes the border. The Fleur de lys is engraved French side and the Savoy cross Sardinian side.

Bonjour Delphine,
Je vois que tu as fait un joli périple durant tes vacances de l'été dernier. Ici un point de vue très sympa sur ce lac sur fond de montagnes. La beauté de l'endroit est rehaussée par l'aspect désertique et sauvage, et les pique-niqueurs au loin en donnent l'échelle. Belle luminosité avec tous ces rochers, et un beau ciel qui a dû assurer de belles balades. Une photo qui donne envie de se retrouver dans ce paysage.
Amitiés,
Jean

Hello Delphine,
Great landscape, really beautiful with a great mix of grass and rocks. I find the sunlight very appealing too, casting even a large shadow on a little bit of snow underneath the larger rock.

Bonjour Delphine,
Ce joli petit lac est bien présenté ici, comme s'il était dans un écran de roche et d'herbe rase.
Le premier plan permet de donner de la profondeur.

Hello Delphine,
Your photograph certainly hides the crowds that you mention in your notes. This looks like an inaccessible and very remote region, where you would be able to sit quietly and study the magnificence of nature!
The f/g slope works very well as a separation line, creating a strong f/g triangle and giving a good sense of depth into the distance, to the lake and the scree slope.
I like how you have been able to position the path, in the b/g, which has a strong vanishing point.
Have a lovely day,
Bev :-)

Bonjour Delphine,
The rocky tarn lake is a wonderful shade of turquoise. The patch of snow at right adds a graphic element against the darker tones. Good sharpness and a marvelous high elevated vantage point. Tfs.

Hi Delphine,
beautiful landscape! I like very much lakes in the mountains they always add so much interest. It is also the case here: this greenish color of the lake is stunning! Very nice vertical frame, so suitable for this occasion. I like the well saturated natural colors.
Excellent work!
