a touch of color
lost at sea

I was surprised to see a rowboat out on the Lake. It's not small by any stretch of the imagination, so either they're very crazy or very athletic.

As with yesterday, I like the limited tonal range, which makes the scene look like one of the old Chinese or Japanese ink paintings.

@GJC: Thank you, that's what I was aiming for in these few shots. :)

Great day for fishing, it looks so calm, a bit of fog, beauty, peace...

That touch of colour - pinky/mauve/grey is lovely! Very soft with the haze! I like this one ;-)

I really like the lines of depth you've got here... the lake to the boat to those hills to the big hill in the haze... Well done!

How pretty. I find the haze in Taiwan can be tricky at times- sometimes it ruins the shot by lowering the contrast, but this time it works very well creating a lazy afternoon feeling.

I like the feeling of "lost at sea"...though I believe they are not lost at all!The landscape around looks rather eerie and this contributes to the charm of the image!Well captured!
