the sky and trees reflections were beautiful

Can you explain what do you mean by that ?

Beautifully crafted fake reflection. Problem is, it defies the linear properties of reflection. But well done.

Mountainshots, could you explain? I don't understand.

He is saying the reflection is as bright as, if not brighter than actual subject. Also, examine position of the clouds on the upper right corner vs that in the reflection.

Still very pretty

Linear properties of reflection ? The reflection looks correct to me. A reflection will not be a symetrical image but in this instance it will be a view from lower down from the water surface. That is why the top of the mast on the right in the reflection sits in a vertically shifted backdrop. Also on the left there is no reflection of the car park. Perfectly correct. From the advantage point of the camera you can see over the bank onto the carpark, but from the water surface you cannot see over the bank into the car park. Beautiful photo map1273 !

Hate to disappoint you but this is not a fake reflection, It is exactly as shot. I may have brightened it a little in photoshop but it is real. I couldn't fake this if I tried. Some people probably could but I'm not that good.

Thanks everyone.
