Lake Wendouree is the jewel of Ballarat, but has been struck badly by a longlasting drought. It has been alternately desperately shallow and bone dry for the last few years. It is currently shallow, but the swans have returned and are building nests all over it, so maybe they know something.

This is sweet! I enjoy shooting places like this at sunset. I like the cloud reflections in the water in this image. I generally try to also shoot a very wide shot or two in every sunset session, even going vertical if necessary in order to get some of the sky with blue in it to contrast with the firey sky parts of the image. There are many times that the best photos are 20 to 30 minutes after the actual sunset, so I keep shooting even though the air is full of mosquitoes to get those shots.
This place looks like a place where I would feel right at home.
