Default Winter Stillness !

Sky reflection in lake

Took this in Germany last week whilst walking around a lake

Late winters evening, lake was very still and I saw this branch in the water against the reflection of the sky and thought it looked good

I quite like the way the image has turned out but again always welcomed to comments and how this could be improved

Many thanks

Not sure what the purists would say about this but I think it's freakin' awesome. Love the perspective of reeds, water and sky. It took me a few goes to work out what I was looking at because of the illusion. Did you intentionally go for that reflection?

Nice!

Hi

Thanks for the comment

Yes I did intentionally go for this shot

It jumped out at me when I was walking past, I had just packed up the tripod etc for the day so set it up again and took the shot

Glad you liked it
