It has to do with the minerals brought down from melting glaciers to the bottom and super clear water. When sunlight hits it it reflects the blue green colors from the sediment. You need good sunlight to see it and the camera still catches nothing compared to the real life colors. The blue lakes are really cool, one of my favorite features of the Rockies.
