I also found it an informative video. Inspired me to start snapping with my mobile phone.
Got a tip for us?

Google earth’s historical satellite imagery has this lake going all the way back to at least 1985. It appears to always have a healthy amount of water in it.
I have been a horse person for over 20 years. I know about riding, and am not an ignorant animal rights activist. A chain halter is just cruel and abusive, no matter how you try to excuse it. The area around the nose is just as sensitive as the crown. A rope halter would surely be enough.
Just because animals have been treated in certain ways for thousands of years doesn't mean it isn't cruel.
I apologize to everyone for posting on this subject. This is not the appropriate place for this discussion.

This past October was my first time there, and I do remember that lake... it runs along US 550 (Million Dollar Highway) for a bit... seemed strange to me that it was quite straight and rectangular...
I believe it's a catch basin from the building of MDH.
No, I didn't visit a pub before touring Edinburgh Castle. 
People like you narrow the discourse by aggressive opinion making in narrowed cultural narrow-mindedness with the usual arguments of monopolistic interpretive art. I am withdrawing here. I had already picked out more pictures for the next few days that can convey the diversity and beauty of the world. But this is the wrong forum here. Farewell!

My three times through I've always tried to go by Red Mountain in the early morning light. Guess I was so focused on finding spots to photo Red Mountain I ignored the lake altogether.
When there’s so much to see, I’m sure it’s easy to miss, especially if there are trees between you and the water. I recall a few of these man made ponds/lakes are above road grade, too, so you might miss it entirely if you are heading in a particular direction. It won’t be visible until it’s behind you!
I have been absent the last week on MR due to work and other commitments🙂
Hope you all are feeling well?😊
Anyhow, here is a shot from a harbour in Dubrovnik in September 2012.
I thought the effect would be cool to take through the stone wall, but I don't know?🙂

Edit: thank you guys and girls for the warm welcome❤️

We stopped there because on north side there was a nice little road to pull off on, affording the view that I took in the picture probably would have missed it also otherwise Indeed such a beautiful drive, scenery, mining history stops we even were stuck near the top of the divide before descending to Silverton on 550 about lunch when they were doing some serious digging of road cut on right side. So we enjoyed scenery, sat in car and ate lunch there
Ooh, do share some shots please if you still have them
Cheers

I'll have to rummage around in my archives -- I think it was either in 2021 or 2022 that I did a few shots of bubbly lemons.... probably they are in one of the POTD threads, too, for the relevant year. Easier to search my archives, though! LOL!

Ah, found it! Or at least one image..... If I recall correctly there were a lot of images which didn't come out well or to my satisfaction and I probably only shared and kept one or two anyway. It was in October 2021. I actually still have the bottle of the remaining soda water -- I daresay it's gone quite flat by now! Should've thrown it out a long time ago.
I remember now that one suspends the fruit -- lemon, strawberry, orange slice, whatever -- in the water using a skewer or something rather than dropping it wholly into the water.
BTW I used a Sony macro lens 50 mm and now from reading few other posts , other did use a macro as well
I used a macro because was the only lens available to me to get so close and sharp.
What did you use?

Vodka! Shop window in London. Nikon Z50 28mm f/2.8 lens.
Vodka may not be the answer, but it’s worth a shot😉
Sorry @Danfango😁
Edit: i like this photo, because of your camera/lens who can pick up light in this dark place👍
But that is why you get a f/2.8 lens😁
