The Danube (In German: Donau from earlier Danuvius, Celtic *dānu, meaning "to flow, run", Slovak Dunaj, Hungarian Duna, Romanian Dunăre, Old Norse Duná, Turkish Tuna, ancient Greek Istros,Croatian:Dunav , Serbian Дунав or Dunav, Bulgarian Дунав ) is the longest river in the European Union and Europe's second longest river after the Volga. It originates in the Black Forest in Germany as the much smaller Brigach and Breg rivers which join at the eponymously named German town Donaueschingen, after which it is known as the Danube and flows eastwards for a distance of some 2850 km (1771 miles), passing through several Central and Eastern European capitals, before emptying into the Black Sea via the Danube Delta in Romania and Ukraine.
The Danube is navigable by ocean ships from the Black Sea to Brăila in Romania and by river ships to Kelheim, Bavaria; smaller craft can navigate further upstream to Ulm, in Germany. About 60 of its tributaries are also navigable.

Since the construction of the German Rhine–Main–Danube Canal in 1992, the river has been part of a trans-European waterway from Rotterdam on the North Sea to Sulina on the Black Sea (3500 km). In 1994 the Danube was declared one of ten Pan-European transport corridors, routes in Central and Eastern Europe that required major investment over the following ten to fifteen years. The amount of goods transported on the Danube increased to about 100 million tons in 1987. In 1999, transport on the river was made difficult by the NATO bombing of three bridges in Serbia. The clearance of the debris was finished in 2002. The temporary pontoon bridge that hampered navigation was finally removed in 2005.

Coucou Igor,
Petit effet graphique sympa avec cette ondulation, j'aurai quand même forcé un peu le contraste car je trouve les souches un peu trop lumineuses.
Bonne journée

Cestitam ti...

Zdravo Igore
Reka Dunav - tvoja inspiracija sa izuzetnim fotografijama. Odlicna kompozicija i veoma interasantan izbor motiva. Dali je Dunav toliko nadosao da je preplavio obalu ili su ovo jako stari ostaci debla? Izuzetan rad
Poizdrav

Well composed image Igor, full of sharp details, good light and exposure! I like it my friend!

Hi Igor,
I like this simplicity of your image. The water looks a lot cleaner than it was in 1988 when we travelled through Europe.
Very interesting note too, well done for both.
Cheers my friend,
Pete.

Still me my friend,
again a splendid composition, colours, lighting, focus, all is perfect
well done,
Pat
