Traditionally, lakes symbolize a peaceful, contemplative life where one goes to escape from the reality of the world. Many holiday resorts are built around lakes and romance genre novels often use lake settings.
But water always alludes to the connection between the superficial and the profound. A lake symbolizes a fluid transparent movement, its reflective qualities masking the depths beneath it. With lakes, the enormousness of the seas and oceans are made specific and visable.
For me they represent stillness, perhaps the transition between life and death. Lakes can be symbols of the unknown, a place of calm or a place of fear. A great big unconscious eye
Above is a video panorama of the scene used to create the The eye of the lake. It was taken after being lost on a walk in Brittany. I was relieved to find something that I recognized after walking through a forest for hours with no maps and no previous knowledge of the area.
