Many think at first sight that it is a painting. That is a nice idea, but in reality, it is an aerial photograph that I have taken of an area where tests are being conducted with all kinds of algae.

The long shadows of the trees, the ice-covered edges and all the little color details on this island and its surroundings are making this a wonderful winter spectacle. The photo is taken on a height of 122 meters.
