This picture was taken from an outlook platform with a 360-degree view of the beautiful and mind-blowing Mount Pilatus, Switzerland. Definitely a whorthwhile trip for anyone visiting the Swiss Alps.

Lake Geneva at dusk, as seen from the town of Montreux in Switzerland, looking south.

The border with France passes through the lake and the middle part of the mountains seen in the background.

This photo was taken near Adliswil at Lake Zurich, Switzerland. It is a single RAW photo and was post processed in Adobe Camera RAW (only a bit of color & contrast correction). The Moon was part of the original exposure and was not added later in Photoshop.

Composite of one of my Iceland Aurora shots (available on my homepage as wallpaper) and an old photo of Bannalpsee (Lake Bannalp) in Switzerland.

Once I finished combining the Aurora sky with the once daylight scenery of Bannalpsee, I used Flaming Pear's great Photoshop plugin -Flood- to create the Aurora reflections. I little tweak merges both layers so that the original ripples are combined with the new "fake" ripples of the Aurora sky. Then I mostly corrected minor artifacts and color fringing and last but not least, used Nik Color Efex to play around with the colors.

Let me know in the comments whether you liked it or what you'd improve. Enjoy!

Taken on a night with a full moon at Lake Wakatipu, near Queenstown, New Zealand. The view was crystal clear and very bright. So I went for a 30-second long exposure, ISO 400 at f/2.8. Made it almost look like daylight...
