Winter is coming to an end and spring is slowly awakening, and with it our lakes — and the most important one: the competitive season is approaching. Behind us are peaceful winter days by Barutana and Omladinsko Lake, when nature falls silent for a moment and the water “rests.” That’s exactly why winter photos have a special charm — they show the lake in its quietest form, without crowds, without noise, just ice, fog, and tracks along the shore. Those images are a reminder of how precious this water is and how much it changes throughout the year.
