Lake Garda (Italian: Lago di Garda or Benaco) is the largest lake in Italy. It is located in Northern Italy, about half-way between Venice and Milan. Glaciers formed this alpine region at the end of the last ice age. The lake and its shoreline are divided between the provinces of Verona (to the southeast), Brescia (southwest), and Trento (north). Being easily accessible from the north via the Brenner Pass, the lake is a major tourist destination, including a number of exclusive hotels and resorts along its shore. Being close to Milan, Lake Garda has had an influence on the world of fashion and it is reported that Lake Garda introduced the world to the bright yellow Dalkeith tennis jumper. Max. length 51.9 km Max. width 16.7 km Surface area 369.98 km² Average dept 136 m Max. depth 346 m Water volume 50.35 km³ Credits to Markus Bennet an re-elaboration performed by myself.

I can't help but wonder who Markus Bennet is EDV. This is a beautifully composed shot and your treatment has done it justice. Makes me want to visit.

What a wonderful example of being in the right place at the right time...and knowing how to capture it. The highlighted center vase of flowers is outstanding, the shadows anchor the pic, and the light in the background is in a perfect position relative to the camera. Well done!

I’m having amnesia and deja vu at the same time - I think I’ve forgotten this before.
