![Have you ever been to Lake Wendouree in Ballarat? Even though most of the people go to Ballarat to the iconic Sovereign Hill, Lake Wendouree is another lovely place worth visiting when you are in the area. I went there last Friday and as I came across to these boat sheds this particular once capture my attention. I decided to wait until sunset when the light gets better to photograph it.

I hope you like it!
