- Support Nice, interesting photo. The colors in the lake would normally be considered posterized, but I think that's fine with a satellite picture. I've never heard it said that Lake St. Clair is one of the Great Lakes, though. w:Lake St. Clair states that "It is part of the Great Lakes system, and along with the St. Clair River and Detroit River, Lake St. Clair connects Lake Huron (to the north) with Lake Erie (to the south)." Can we substitute that description (or better, an excerpt of it), for the claim in the file description that Lake St. Clair is "one of the Great Lakes of North America"? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:51, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
- Maybe, but I think it's better to take it out. I was just using the description on the source page. PalauanLibertarian (talk) 01:16, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
- It's a European satellite image; the caption writer probably isn't as familiar with the area and would not know most people who live there, let alone most Americans and Canadians, would not consider it one of the Great Lakes even if it's between two of them.

- Support Would be cool to see similar satellite imagery of Lake Baikal. --SHB2000 (talk) 11:59, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
- I agree, the only Lake Baikal one is this and it's not as good. PalauanLibertarian (talk) 13:06, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
