Scott Mollan grew up in Canberra and while he can't remember the city without Lake Burley Griffin, he's heard plenty of tales of the days before it existed. He's always wondered about one particular aspect - how the lake was filled and where the water came from. Digital journalist Elise Pianegonda went looking through the capital's archives to find the answer. Photo by Vishal Pandey.
