Lake Caliraya
Laguna

Tech:
- CPL for the reflections
- levels adjustments

Sometimes we don't need long shutter speeds for smooth water effect ;) I would love to have some rocks as foreground interest but found none, so I settled for this small banca as anchor.

Trivia:

Lake Caliraya is man-made. It was built by the Americans during WWII to provide water to their troops.

The Americans seeded the lake with Largemouth Black Bass. Its the only lake in the country where Philippine anglers can attempt to catch these Black Bass- one of the top freshwater gamefishes.
