Where the Danube acrossed the Almaj mountains it forms a dip, named in Romania "cazane" (cauldron). The river, wich are 7-8 mil cube meters/sec, is forceful to cross between mount rocks.
Left size is Romania and right is Serbia & Montenegro.
Likely place.

I suppose by now most know that I am a big fan of simple compositions. Here is my simplified version of this lovely scene. First I straightened the image then I decided on what the subject is: the cliff and its reflection. Anything that wasn't necessary was eliminated. I cropped off some of the sky and the left side with the building and half tree. I saturated the middle ground (the cliff and reflection) using Highlights and Shadows, Contrast, and Burn. Then I sharpened and made a simple frame to make the composition feel even tighter.
