Perched high on a boulder, the cool mountain air surrounds you as look down into the clear blue waters of the alpine lake around you. The waves gently lap the shore and the sun glimmers on the surface of the water. The water is so clear you can see the sand and rocks beneath the surface. As your gaze travels across the water before you, the colors slowly change from the sandy brown at the water’s edge, to bright turquoise, and finally to the deepest of blues.
