Description
Just the lake near my home at sunset. Believe it or not, I've found it crazily difficult to take a decent photo of it.Anyway, it is an artificial lake flanked by both native eucalyptus forest and pine plantation, but really has a lot of native birdlife in it.

Beautiful place, very peaceful and calm. Oh yes, I I lived near it I'd spend there hours and hours for sure! Even with tons of mosquitoes everywhere
Great shot Greenzaku!

God if I lived near that I'd spend hours down there, it'd be hard to drag me away. You are quite lucky to have such lovely locations so near to you.

Wataga Lake around 40 miles from where I live. I have gone there most of my life. Its a man made lake that fills a valley and all the "islands" are essentially mountain tops and hills.

Here in Michigan, we have hundreds of lakes. Aside from the Great Lakes, there's all sorts of smaller lakes randomly dispersed throughout the State. They're leftover glacier melt-water.
If you're driving through one of the many Lakes communities, all of the roads are really winding because they have to go around the numerous lakes. Efforts to widen the roads because of increasing population have severely been hampered as often there's only narrow stretches of land between various lake portions - thus causing numerous road bottlenecks.
Suffice it to say that rush hour can be a nightmare.
But the lakes sure are pretty.

Up near where I was working in Queensland, they wanted to dam part of the Mary River, a move so ill-advised that farmers, foresters, environmentalists, hydrologists etc came together in a once-in-a-blue-moon unholy union to stop it. Though the project was stopped, the new highway built to divert traffic around it still exists, causing some confusion.
