Excellent reflection. I like the tree shape.

I don't know what you did Islandgirl but it's too perfect to be a reflection am I right?
You're too clever and it looks to me that I'm looking at two perfect halves....Please
clue me in on what you did or how you got this perfect image!

Cool processing and fav. Can't be a reflection in your frozen wonderland.

[Islandgirl]

@skskunky @kathiecb Thank you for your comments, I'm surprised you were the only two to realize it wasn't a reflection in water. It was a reflection on the sunroof of my car which I was using as a tripod!

[Linda H.Y. Hegland]

Fantastic!

[Osia Strasner]

How cool is that?! Yes, I could not quite figure out how you got that perfect reflection because it did not look like you had such a big body of water in front of the tree! Very clever to use the sunroof, and a wonderful image!

[Kathie]

@radiogirl I would never have guessed a sunroof. That's foreign to me as my car is never clean. LOL

[aikiuser (jenn)]

Wow, nice!!!

[Denise (lyndemc)]

@radiogirl I came back to see if there was an explanation of what was done here. Happy to know now that the tree's reflected on something. I sure couldn't figure out why its pattern was so distinct or why there was an odd break in the line of trunk. Good job spotting the photo op on your sunroof!

[Stephanie Swift]

So beautifully done, fav for sure!

[Kate]

This is really cool. Well spotted and photographed.

[Kerry McCarthy]

Terrific! Fav.

[Susan]

Fantastic! Fav

[Rosan]

Cool image! I never would have guessed how you got the perfect reflection! Thanks for the explanation! Well done!

[Joce]

Creative shot Kathy !! I knew it was not water reflection and could not figure it out, thought you had processed the reflection until i read your note. Fav !!

[Julie Chapa]

Incredible reflection! Fav!

[Francoise]

thanks for the explanation! It would not have been in your usual style to put in a reflection that wasn't there. "Enigma" is a great title for the picture.

[Vicki Dixon]

a fav! great job

[Mrs. Laloggie]

I can see why this made the popular page - I'm just days behind in my viewing and commenting. Love it. Fav, of course.

[Mrs. Laloggie]

Just read your explanation of how you got the reflection -- very cool!
