Lake Väner
Swedish Vänern,

largest lake in Sweden, 2,181 square miles (5,650 square km) in area, in the southwestern part of the country. The lake is about 90 miles (145 km) long and as much as 348 feet (106 metres) deep, and its surface lies 144 feet (44 metres) above sea level. The lake is fed by numerous rivers (the largest being the Klar), and the lake itself drains westward into the Kattegat (strait) via the Göta River, which is a major source of hydroelectric power. Väner is surrounded by rocky, wooded shores except on the south, where the coast is low and conducive to farming. The lake forms a major link in the Göta Canal, a waterway that crosses Sweden from Göteborg on Sweden's west coast to Stockholm on the east coast. Improvements on the Trollhätte Canal permit seagoing craft entering from the Kattegat to serve such lake ports as Karlstad, Lidköping, Vänersborg, Kristinehamn, Åmal, Säffle, and Mariestad. These towns have important industries, such as tanneries, ironworks, and paper mills. Väner is the third largest lake in Europe, after Ladoga and Onega (both in Russia).

Zdravo Zorica,

Aah, kakšna lepa okolica. Takoj bi zamenjal zdajle. Lepo si to ujela, s super barvami in perfektnim motivom v sredini. Blagor ti. :)

hi Zorica

Good placement of the anchor on the rock and in contrast with the lake water. Interesting place and wonder if the lake is for fishing and recreation activities? I can see the high tide leaves pockets of water on the dented rocks.

tfs, bill

Hi Zorica
This is just lovely!. The reflection where only a small part of the anchor is seen and that reflection looks like a human face. Excellent POV and sharpness
