Lake Rowallan near the Walls of Jerusalem in central Tasmania. A man made lake, which is currently very empty while they are doing some major construction works to the dam itself.
I'd say these trees would normally be completely submerged when the dam is full. It's like seeing ghosts reappear from some dreamtime.

An icy & broken chain link fence is used as a barrier to keep people from wandering into unsafe conditions. This icy fence was pretty buried in the sand which is allowing ice to form as waves crashed into it.

This digital blend of the Thames Barrier captures the awe-inspiring 520-metre construction stretching between Woolwich and Silvertown. The barrier was built in the early 1980s and was designed to protect Central London from tidal flooding and river flooding, and comprises 10 steel gates, each weighing more than 3300 tonnes and which, when raised, reach a height equivalent to a five-storey building.
The image was taken over the course of an hour and a half, and incorporates elements from eight-, ten- and twelve-minute exposures, blending the warm late-afternoon sunshine striking the gates, the calm early-evening sky overhead, and the rich blue-hour hue that was reflected in the construction’s steel. The final touch was the smooth texture across the river, which I felt created a nice contrast to the detail in the gates, which were in turn subtly emphasised once the evening lights had switched on.
