Old talk[edit]

The image I added was an unique for Wikipedia image of the lake. The image placed instead of my one is the same image as in Volkhov River article. I intended to fill Wikipedia with original free-licensed content and escape doubling (furthermore my image shows the lake and the current one shows the river). I don't insist on keeping my image, though. Ss r 00:30, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
