This is Lake Pliva in Montenegro, it's the highest artificial reservoir in the world.
I didn't know that at the time of staying beside it in a small town called Plužine. The place we stayed was right beside this scene here so it meant we had easy access to it for sunset, night photography and also sunrise. Access would have been even easier if we hadn't been locked inside the place we were staying when some feckless person decided to go home and lock all occupants inside. Unbelievable. A phone call and 30 minute wait sorted it...but it's still a shocking thing to have done.
Though I saw this boat during our sunset trip to the lake, and again during our night time trip, it wasn't until the morning when I bothered walking over to it. I wish I had done this sooner as it provides a nice bit of foreground interest that I didn't previously have.

True, the falls is Artificial.

As the world became more observed in technology and innovation the human population increased. One resource was needed to support the growing population. The one resource that cannot be made. Land
The worlds corporations gathered to satisfy this need. They managed to create artificial islands in the Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean. These artificial islands had different purposes. For instance the artificial setting you see here is a lower class island. With cheap and affordable living for the citizens of the world
Other islands made serve as penal colonies, middle class getaways or ones made for the rich that created them. These islands have however became havens for nefarious, yet interesting activities. Here you see a joust between a security drone and a human.
So this is my first cyberpunk creation. A cool yet strange theme. I hope you all like it.
"A 1969 station concept. The station was to rotate on its central axis to produce artificial gravity. The majority of early space station concepts created artificial gravity one way or another in order to simulate a more natural or familiar environment for the health of the astronauts. After returning from a micro-gravity environment, astronauts find their muscles weak because they have not been using them. Long-term exposure to micro-gravity could generate long-term health problems for astronauts who do not utilize their muscles. This is why there are exercise machines on space shuttles and on the International Space Station. It was to be assembled on-orbit from spent Apollo program stages."
Obviously, the above is a relatively contemporary ‘composition’ and surprisingly okay. I wonder what the original was though. Although this isn’t, some other original printings must’ve been captioned…maybe.
The approaching ferry? capsule looks like an Apollo Command Module with a Mercury Recovery Compartment ‘appendage’. The space station actually appears to have the same spacecraft docked at both ends. In fact, the one on the right looks to be undocked. And I’m guessing the ring of ‘lights’, near the base of each are windows/portholes. If so, they’re good-sized craft.
This has long been an oft-reproduced & iconic rotating space station concept. I’ve always loved it…other than those lame motion/movement lines.
Thanks to James Vaughan’s posting (linked to below), this is a GAEC design/proposal, which helped to confirm that it’s the work of Craig Kavafes. A WIN!!! 👍👍👍
This, the following linked designs & my other linked Flickr photo below - based on the photo identification number - look to have been part of the same family/series of contractor concepts, proposals, etc., solicited/entertained by NASA ca. 1969:

In fact and in confirmation of such; in January - February 1969, NASA Administrator Thomas O. Paine oversaw the creation of a Space Station Task Force, a Space Station Steering Group, and an independent Space Station Review Group. These bodies prepared a Phase B Space Station Study Statement of Work (SOW), which NASA released to industry on 19 April 1969. So, I'm pretty sure these works are some of the responses/submittals to that SOW.
"The SOW solicited proposals to study a 12-man Space Station, the design of which would eventually serve as a building block for a 100-man Earth-orbital Space Base. The 12-man Station was to reach orbit on a Saturn V rocket in 1975 and to remain in operation for 10 years...
Grumman, North American Rockwell (NAR), and McDonnell Douglas Aerospace Company (MDAC) submitted proposals in response to the SOW."
