A selection of unusual shape of reservoirs
"Lake James Bond»
Even with a glimpse can be seen that the creation of this reservoir had a hand man. But nobody was going to do it in the form of a lake pistol. The lake was dug in the 70s, when the highway construction took a lot of sand, and its form is obliged location plots that were bought construction company for this purpose. This Belgian lake is popular with water sports representatives, here also moves the water from the river Demer in case of flooding.
A lake
Next on our list of the lake is shaped like the letter A. The photo is made from a balloon. Unfortunately, information about his whereabouts was not found.
Friday pond

The same form (and content) is Catherine's garden in Moscow:
Fish Lake
Frozen lake in the shape of fish was discovered on Mount McKinley in Alaska. By the way, this mountain higher than Everest,
simply its base is in 610-meter cavity.
Lake-man
We immediately see that this lake created by man. So to speak, created his own kind. This 140-meter figure of a man
located in the Brazilian Borborema.
Ponds, horseshoe
This lake is situated in a horseshoe shape along the Red River near Morris in the Canadian Mantibobe. Generally this type of lakes
not so rare - they are formed by the separation of the segment from the main channel of the river, but that this lake is one of the
the most perfect examples of horseshoe reservoirs.
And this is just one of the branches of the Colorado River, located slightly downstream from Lake Powell within
Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. Called the sleeve Arizona's Horseshoe Bend (Arizona horseshoe bend),
but if you let the river directly, bypassing this bending - get another perfect horseshoe lake. Particularly impressive
view opens when you look at the river with a 305-meter cliff, located above it.
Lake-ring
Flying from Europe to Canada passengers including spaces Labrador can see another little different lake.
Here, on a dark background coniferous forests clearly visible ring of water, covering all sides large
(Diameter of 70 kilometers) forested island.
This is one of the most ancient among the currently known impact craters, or rather, it should be. 214 million years ago there was
meteorite with a diameter of five kilometers. Much later the crater "crawled" giant glacier, cut the top layer
rocks a kilometer thick, but the central part of the bottom of the crater before glacial erosion resisted, as is
from arising in the melting of the moment of impact is very hard rock. Thus was formed the valley surrounded by the plateau on which
the river began to flow. In 1968, the Manicouagan River hydroelectric dams have blocked, and it flooded the envelopes plateau with two
sides of the valley. There was a circular lake, and the plateau was an island - the second largest of the islands located in the lakes.
Lake-leprechaun
A lake like some giant leprechaun hat, fun walking somewhere) And if the previous lake
at first glance can be attributed to an artificially created, it looks quite natural
Not quite the lake, but partially with water
Arab sheikh billionaire decided to glorify himself on the planet and beyond, write your name in the sand belonging to him
Island kilometer letters. Caption HAMAD dug in the sand island belonging to him al-Futaisi letters km altitude,
length of the inscription is about 4 km
Well, how do without the heart-lake?
The first lake is located in Korea
... And the second - at an altitude of about 1398 meters above sea level in less frostbitten areas of Indian Kerala,
in a beautiful area Vayyanad, near the peak of Cembra. With a surface area in 1827 square meters is the heart of a small,
but quite warm. Lake, by the way, are called - "Neart of Wayanad".

Pond in the park Ekateringof in St. Petersburg:
Rumor has it that ponds and channel were made exactly as on the personal order of Catherine II, as a joke on someone of her favorites.
