"Altitude 1890M" Shot in Lake Lioson, Switzerland with Canon 5D Mark III

The story: It was a sunny day and the view is breathtaking when sunlight is shining on the snow-covered mountains of Switzerland. The iced Lake Lioson is located in the midst of these mountains, so I thought I should combine this landscape and ice diving. I stayed in the ice-cold water alone about an hour, and a button of my camera housing even became frozen so that I could not change my shutter speed. Finally a diver came up from the dark and I captured this moment. Special thanks to Wang who arranged the fantastic trip, and Owen, the man in the picture.
