Himalayan Lake @ 12400 Feet
This shot was take in Sikkim, India at an altitude of 12400 Ft...
It was Cold, with low oxygen that's why the horizon is a little tilted :P  Trivia: Its 2000 Feet below India China Border, Nathula Pass

Thanks for sharing this with us PraZ.
Sikkim is one of my favourite places in the world, but it's nearly 15years since I was last there

Thanks folks. Most of the lakes in this region are considered sacred and that helps to maintain them crystal clear...

you don't think of it being cold when you think of India......I know that water has to be frigid...polar bear plunge anyone?

Beautiful. I have my spot picked out there on the left hand side of the picture. I think I'd like to just sit and contemplate the world for a few weeks right there.

LOL, I am no stranger to shooting at altitude... It can be very tough, and I find the best practice is to be very well prepared in advance.. Nice shot, and the horizon isn't hard to fix..
