This is another potential location as it is creating a tense atmosphere. It sets the scene of being dark and mysterious, unravelling the unknown. Normally lakes are represented as beautiful and idyllic, whereas this lake is represented as if it is about to swallow this person whole. All the weeds and twigs in the lake only add to dangerous atmosphere that has already been created. The lake also looks on-going, which could connote the pain the character may feel or the suspense that an audience might be led to believe is never-ending. Once again this leaves the character to become vulnerable, as if the location is in control and decides what happens and when. By giving the location a god-like status, the character doesn't lead us to the location, but the location leads us to the character.
