Hi,
I have always heard that water is life and this phrase is not without reason, although at the end of the post I will unfortunately give an example that contradicts this widespread phrase.
Water is life because you only need to look at a globe to see that water occupies more than 75% of the planet.
It is life because our human body is also composed of water as its main component. Although depending on our age and sex, the percentage of water in our body varies.
But for me water is life as I see the different forms in which water can manifest itself in nature and which gives our planet a spectacular beauty.
Seas and Oceans
The seas and oceans are the largest amount of water on the planet.
I love to sit on the rocks, on the shore of a beach and watch the sea. How there is a struggle between the land and the sea to occupy the same space.
The same happens when I go to idyllic places like the Isla Pancha lighthouse in Ribadeo and walk around this island watching how the sea and the land intertwine in beautiful cliffs.
Or when the sea surrounds an islet. Giving that placid shiver of solitude and serenity.
Rivers
Rivers are to my way of thinking like arteries. They distribute the water in their course in a serene way in many occasions giving me peace.
And when that river flows calmly through the city, as is the case of the river Cabe in Monforte de Lemos, it becomes a true mirror of reality. It transmits peace.
But sometimes these rivers reach an end point where their path ends and they have no choice but to jump, forming waterfalls of water.
And sometimes it is only a matter of a few metres and they have to jump again, as I was able to enjoy during my holidays in Oneta with its charming waterfalls.
Lakes
Lakes are special places. Quiet places and if they are accompanied by a mountain backdrop, they are a place where the view is relaxing.
Even in artificial lakes or reservoirs to generate electricity and this one withstanding high temperatures as on my last visit in Granada in July.
##Artificial ponds
To talk about Granada is to talk about the Alhambra and in the Alhambra if there is one thing there is water coming from the Sierra Nevada.
There I enjoyed the most beautiful ponds with reflections of the Nasrid palaces which are undoubtedly photos that I will always use in my posts with great pride.
Water sometimes is not life
However, although water is life in almost all cases, water can also mean death.
My entry to #pobphotocontest
Six years ago today I lost one of my friends (Alberto) to a bad blow he got from the raging sea while fishing.
May you rest in peace, my friend.
This post goes for you.
Best regards.
A beautiful tribute to remember your friend and how insignificant we are before the greatness of nature. A hug, I hope his memory will be a pleasant company in those moments that you are surrounded by water.
There is a joke that our favorite form of water represents the relationship we have with our intimacy, something like that. You made me remember it, but the really amazing thing about this post are the photographs you have selected, the reflections in the Alhambra are a marvel.
A beautiful tribute.
The Alhambra is a marvel and the murmur of the water through its palaces is one of the best experiences.

Wow! You have many awesome photos of water here my friend. If I'm the judge I will be having a hard time picking which photo wins, they are all scenic and beautiful.
Best of luck on the challenge.
Yeap, I totally agree, Water is truly Life, without it we will all die!!!
Hello,
I didn't know which photo to use for the contest. Some of them I had used for other editions of the #pobphotocontest so I decided to use one that I had not used before.

They are all equally beautiful!

Thanks much @indeedly and dear friend @castri-ja. Thanks for the Love!
You have some lovely shots. You can really see the force of the water. I also like the reflection shots by the way.
Hi @friendlymoose,
I was about to take some of the reflection photos as a photo for the contest but I think I had used them before for the #pobphotocontest.
So I opted for the rough water in the fishing port near my house.
At the same time, as it coincided with the anniversary of my friend's death while fishing near the place of this photo, I decided to choose that picture.

Good choice I think.
I have done so many rounds of the #pobphotocontest that I sometimes need to reuse subjects.
I don't always have enough inspiration to come up with something new (that is accessible enough for everyone to join in).

It's true that water can cause dead but the life it gives is far beyond
