Landscape Beauty at Lake Junaluska
The unincorporated Lake Junaluska community in North Carolina is centered around a beautiful 200-acre namesake lake and surrounded by 1,200 acres of rolling hills and valleys. The high peaks and stunning natural beauty of the area offers numerous photographic opportunities of landscapes.
This image has a foreground to frame the scene making it more interesting than the photo posted earlier this week.
Cloud Reflections at Lake Junaluska
Lake Junaluska is one of the crown jewels of North Carolina. Surrounded by jaw-dropping mountain views, wildlife, and of course, the lake, residents will never want to go inside! Here is an image of cloud reflections on the lake.
Lake Lure from Chimney Rock
From approximately 4,000 feet above sea level, the views from Chimney Rock are spectacular. Even on a cloudy day, Lake Lure appears grand. One of the most beautiful man-made lakes in the country, Lake Lure is nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. Located about 27 miles from Asheville, Lake Lure sits in the Hickory Nut Gorge, surrounded by lush mountain tops and sheer granite cliffs.
Early Morning at Lake Jowai
Water curves of Lake Jowai early in the morning at Bera. A lonely Ruddy Shelduck known as the Brahminy duck in India stands in the water.
Birds in Bera
Bera is situated in close proximity to the Jawai Dam and lake and is the destination for leopard sightings, but where one can also spot more than 150 species of birds.
Lake Jowai
Close to Bera, lie the river Jawai and the Jawai dam. The result of these two structures is a lake-like water body. A scenic place amidst the hills is home to some of the biggest crocodiles apart from a number of resident and migratory birds.
Lake Arenal Costa Rica
Lake Arenal sits at the base of the Arenal Volcano in the northern highlands of Costa Rica. It is the country’s largest landlocked body of water, with a surface that covers nearly 33 square miles (85 square km) and a depth that reaches some 200 feet (60 m).
In 1979, Lake Arenal was enlarged to three times its original size with the construction of a hydroelectric dam. Nowadays, Lake Arenal’s dam is hugely important to the country, as it produces nearly 12% of Costa Rica’s electric energy.
Tadoba – Water Bodies
Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve (TATR) is one of the most sought after tiger-sighting and watching destinations in India. Tadoba is a wonderful habitat and the state flagship tiger reserve. Its most important asset is its ever present water resource in a geographical area that is a byword for water scarcity. It has a wealth of water bodies and lakes, both big and small, and the whole area is drained by the Irai and Andhari rivers, with the Tadoba draining into the Irai reservoir.
Jackson Lake at the Tetons
Jackson Lake is in Grand Teton National Park in northwestern Wyoming. This natural lake was enlarged by the construction of the Jackson Lake Dam, which was originally built in 1911, enlarged in 1916 and rebuilt by 1989.
Teton Reflections on Water
The steep, rugged mountains of the Teton Range give way to the morainic landscape of the valley, which is dotted with glacial lakes of varying sizes.
Teton Landscape
The Tetons are one of the youngest mountain ranges in North America. They have been uplifting for less than 10 million years, making them “adolescent” mountains, as compared to the “middle-aged” Rockies (50-80 million years old) or the “elderly” Appalachians (more than 300 million years old).
Most of the lakes in the park were formed by glaciers and the largest of these lakes are located at the base of the Teton Range

Swan Lake Iris Gardens located in Sumter, South Carolina are home to all eight species of swans. The lake is dotted with colorful islands, wildlife is abundant. Here are images displaying the serenity of the lake.

Reflections – Monet-like
Reflection photography, also referred to as mirror photography, is when you use reflective surfaces to create an artistic echo of a scene. Here are reflections of trees on a lake creating a Monet-like painting effect. The red kayak adds to the scene.
Water Sports at Lake Junaluska
One of the very popular activities at Lake Junaluska during the summer, is kayaking, canoeing and paddle boarding on the lake.
A Bridge Across the Lake
The Turbeville Footbridge, over Lake Junaluska, North Carolina, completes the loop of the walking trail around the lake.
