Lake Como (Lago di Como in Italian, also known as Lario; Lach de Comm in Insubric; Latin: Larius Lacus) is a lake of glacial origin in Lombardy, Italy. It has an area of 146 km˛, making it the third largest lake in Italy, after Lake Garda and Lake Maggiore. At over 400 m (1320 ft) deep it is one of the deepest lakes in Europe and the bottom of the lake is more than 200 metres (656 ft) below sea-level. Lake Como has been a popular retreat for aristocrats and wealthy people since Roman times, and a very popular tourist attraction, which boasts many artistic and cultural gems. It is famous for its numerous villas and palaces (such as Villa Olmo, Villa Serbelloni and Villa Carlotta). Currently, many celebrities have or had homes on the shores of Lake Como, such as Matthew Bellamy, Madonna, George Clooney, Gianni Versace, Ronaldinho, Sylvester Stallone and Ben Spies. Lake Como is widely regarded as being one of the most beautiful lakes in Italy. I'll provide some pics of these famous villas. Enjoy this view.

Very good composition and clarity in this beautiful image, Ed. The sky looks lovely and the light with shadows enhances the beauty of the image.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
Is there something you like Gael? Maybe the next time you can give me some instructions in advance for making a picture following your desire and not mine!

Fabulous brooding view, Ed. I love the high contrast and the long shadows on the lawn. I can certainly see why rich people want to live here.

Pure serenity! Like your composition and the shadows in the foreground. Thanks also for the information on this beautiful place!

Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things which escape those who dream only by night.

Absolutely gorgeous! The clouds and shadows add much to the composition.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
I love the blues and greens to your capture. Nice shadow also.

Very nice place, Edoardo. The lake's surface is 200 meters above sea level and its bottom is below 200 meters of sea level. Very interesting. Your postwork is great and result is beautiful colors. Thanks for sharing.

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine
I think you meant "One of the most beautiful lakes in the world" :-) If this lake isn't I don't know what is. Lake Atitlan in Guatemala (I have a few photos from there) is also among those giants. Beautiful capture! I quite like the layout of this picture and definitely understand why the water was slightly de-emphasized in this one.
