What splendid eyes these little gobies have  They hide in small crevices in rocks. They are shy but curious and it is easy to photograph them when they lean out to scrutinize the external environment. Havelock Is._April2024

Excellent divesite. The lake was created after a landslide blocked off the river Lygna in may 1908. In the lake you'll find farm houses, stone fences, a road, bridge and two gates. Also, there is a wierd and wonderful old forest - the troll forest.

Underwater forest in lake Lygnstøylsvatnet, Norway.

Lake Lygnstøylsvatnet, Norway. I 1908, a rockslide closed off the valley and it was flooded by the river. Some of the rocks are huge! This one must be older than the landslide though; it has trees growing on it ;-)
