Man, my brain could not figure out what was going on in the top of the image. At first I thought it was damage to a cellulose negative, but it is clearly just WAY over exposed. Weird effect.
Yes, it was somewhat late in the day when I was there (about 17.30), so the dam was in the shade and the hillside above it in bright sunlight.
This picture shows what's above the dam better.
Been there. Amazing structure.
Switzerland has some impressive dams and the color of the water behind them is often a very striking shade of blue. Here's a picture I took of a dam in Switzerland, though I don't recall the name or exact place anymore.
