"Now to consult the rules of composition before making a picture is a little like consulting the law of gravitation before going for a walk. Such rules and laws are deduced from the accomplished fact; they are the products of reflection..." ~ Edward Weston
A reflection in the water at Fairchild Botanical Garden. I think that fish in the top left corner must be wondering which way is up! ;'] Best viewed at full size. Have a super weekend everyone! ------

WOO...the topsy-turvy world of reflection ! sorta like walking around with a mirror under your chin, you can never tell which is the right-way up ! KKK ~Cheers~ :o)
Sky diving fish I'd say. Like the glassy effects of palms and sky. Excellent... Aloha

as always kort, well seen. this looks like an impressionist painting. awesome work.
Bravo! Very beautiful image! :)
Beautiful use of reflection! An excellent piece of work!
It reminds me of a melting oil painting. Beautiful capture, Kortalouche. Tres artistic!
excellent concept. Love it!
Excellent perspective offered by the distorted reflection - well done.
Most awesome!!! Went straight to my favourites!!! Perfect colours for a reflection!!!
A superb work, Kort. Lovely reflection and dreamy colours.. Oh! I do like :-) Hugs. Diane.
The use of the reflection for the main image is genius. Like a painting...love it.
The outcome is superb Kort ! A brilliant effect.
beautiful reflection like an abstract picture bravo
Rather like a painting, of a photo, of a dream. Very zen. I love it!
Beautiful distortions created from the ripples and the reflections are fantastic. Nice one Kort. xx
quite beautiful image........... j
awesome reflection shot, do fish wonder? lol
Superb reflection of the palm trees in this capture. It gives me the impetus to create a similar effect with one of the Photoshop filters. Sorry about the Florida drought, but we have the same thing here.
Na this is just coooool.Fuzzy effect captured in its natural happening!
So beautiful, Kort! It looks cool as well, I mean temperature. Guess that is on my mind with temps in the 100's already. :O I love the ripples, and wonder if it is wind, or something in the water to keep it circulating. Thanks for this beauty, now I'm ready for a swim. Oh! Forgot, no pool. Hugs, Suzanne x:)
excellent reflection. I seen several reflections yesterday on my trip back to Texas but I was doing 75-80mph.too hard to stop. glad you were walking so you could share this
These look really great with the ripple on the water. Very creative shot.
I always feel like I'm standing on my head, looking at these pictures... Great pic mate.
wonderful shot. very good ideal
Better than a painting, good choise of the light and exposure, perfect indeed ^__^
