Default Bubble with a reflection

I had posted a previous thread about a bubble, where flavio mentioned how good it would be if I had a reflection in the bubble. Well, here goes:

Bubble Reflection

As I mentioned in that thread, I am not completely happy with this one since I didn't get the full bubble in the image but the reflection is certainly worth a look. It is actually the balcony of my house reflected from the second balcony where I was taking the photos. That spherical surface does strange things with geometry!

Hope you like it.

Thanks everyone. I boosted the saturation by about +15 to bring out the colours.

Hmmm, now that you are asking I am wondering the same thing too. I should be in there somewhere in a highly distorted form off to the right hand side, but I can't make out where. There are other shots that show me quite clearly, albeit in a weird shape, but somehow this one doesn't.
