About Lakeside Reflections Free
Beautiful lakeside scenes reflecting in the calm waves of the foreground water in this live wallpaper. Clouds are moving in different altitudes. Hot air balloons slowly float in the air. Colors and light change dynamically during the day. The early morning starts with a beautiful sunrise with dazzling colors. The sun moves over the sky during the day and finally vanishes behind the horizon a magical sunset. When the afternoon evolves into night the moon becomes more and more visible until midnight when it slowly starts to fade again as the new day dawns. Use the automatic sunrise/sunset premium feature to let the app automatically calculate correct sunrise and sunset times for your gps location (check runs once a day, and GPS must be on).

This wallpaper with live water reflections is based on OpenGL, which means that your phone's GPU is working instead of the CPU, making much less impact on the overall phone performance. Also, the wallpaper is only active when visible, so battery life will not be affected much.
