oak leaves from the tree photo I posted... the distortion is from the rather lazy ripples in the water that day... they were so mesmerizing I nearly fell in when trying to shoot this...

That's an incredible capture! Such an amazingly clear reflection for water that is not perfectly still! A captivating image, for sure!

Very provocative post Mary. If you hadn't told me reason for distortion I wouldn't have guessed. It's absolutely beautiful and it is art. Great photo Mary.

It really is hard to tell where reality stops and the reflections begin. There's a lesson in there somewhere :)

Using nature's photoshop. A very clever idea and easier and cheaper than the real thing. An absolutely gorgeous shot.

How lovely and dizzying. You couldn't ask for a better set up. The late light is also just right for setting the leaves above the water ablaze.
