copacabana, a photo from La Paz, North

Photographer's Note

Copacabana means "view of the lake" and this Copacabana is rightly named because it fronts onto Lake Titicaca at
3800 m altitude. The most famous "Copa" is, of course, the beach and quarter in Rio de Janeiro, which is at 0 m altitude and fronts onto a big "lake"...the Atlantic Ocean!

When I first saw this title and the country, I thought it was a mistake. Which your note disabused me, of course, and which makes it a fascinating image. It's well composed and positioned, but I think it's a little bit oversaturated, possibly from the harsh light at that altitude.

Hi Michael, thanks again for critique on my shot. :-) Nice perspectively taken photo. I like colors balance, I dont think it is oversaturated as 'Wandering_Dan' said. The sky is blue and the builidngs are in right color condition.
Thanks,
