This image was released by #NASA taken at the location where it used to be #lake #Urmieh, between eastern and western Azerbaijan provinces in north western Iran.

The water level of #CaspianSea, the largest lake in the world is now 9m bellow it's lowest level recorded in history and causing trouble for fishermen and people who's life depends on the well being of that sea, not only in #Iran, but also in #Azerbaijan Republic, #Turkmenistan and even Russia.

#Stonehenge-Like #Structure Found Under #Lake #Michigan

Archaeologists found something much more fascinating than they got credit for when searching under the waters of Lake Michigan for shipwrecks: they uncovered a rock with a #prehistoric #carving of a #mastodon, as well as a collection of stones arranged in a Stonehenge-like manner.

Gazing into the water
In modern #archaeology, the use of remote sensing techniques is common: scientists regularly survey lakes and soil for hidden objects.

Archaeologists uncovered sunken boats and cars and even a Civil War-era pier at a depth of around 40 feet into Lake Michigan’s Grand Traverse Bay, using sonar techniques to search for shipwrecks, but among all these, they found this prehistoric surprise

South Tyrol, Italy — also known as Südtirol or Alto Adige — is a wildly fascinating marvel hidden amid the peaks and valleys of the Italian Alps. A mountain-blessed region teeming with crumbling castles, cliff-clinging vineyards and mirror-still lakes nestled beneath the thundering Dolomites, this unspoiled gem continues to inspire more ‘wow’ moments than anywhere else we have roamed.

So much beauty abounds here you can be forgiven if unsure where to fix your gaze. But South Tyrol’s enthralling sights are only part of its allure. Here, you can experience la dolce vita and gemütlichkeit all at once. The region is enlaced with eclectic culture. Italian, German, Austrian and Ladin (a people native to remote valleys in the Dolomites) influences entwine throughout — steeping the land with a delightful variety of cuisine, architecture, history and traditions.

When we stayed in Altaussee in September we made a trip to the Ödensee nearby and hiked around it.

The Ödensee, with a surface area of 20 hectares, is one of the smaller lakes in the Salzkammergut. It is however, a popular spot for swimming in summer.

The Ödensee is a natural lake in the Salzkammergut. It’s located at 776 meters in the municipality of Pichl-Kainisch, Styria, and has a maximum depth of about 19 meters. It is a so-called forest moorland lake.
