Which way is up?..................................................................... the reveal


Many thanks for all your lovely comments about yesterdays post.
The answer to the question is...... the second image.
Shown again below.

It was wonderful to see after the high winds we had a week ago.

Another view of the pool I took during a lovely walk... with not a breath of wind in the air.
I took loads of images all around this little pond... a relic from Andertons industrial past.

I always love taking photos of reflections on the water. They always turn out great.

Beautiful. I can't believe you were only a few miles away - it was quite breezy here on the Wirral. You would have stood no chance of getting such good reflections in Pensby (not that I've got a pool to match any way!)

Gosh those reflections are gorgeous, and I enjoyed your other post with the photos of the Long-tailed Tit and the squirrel. Such a pretty bird and I see the squirrels are as rascally as they are here.

Very nice reflections :)

Jerry said...

These are lovely. If you switched that second shot the other way up I'm sure nobody would notice!

Susan Scheid said...

All I can say is Phew, got lucky with my guess! I do love reflections in still water. Magical, magical.

It is interesting as someone noted yesterday, the colors are always darker, I say richer, in the reflection. The water must absorb ultraviolet of something.

Reena said...

I agree with Sinbad ... it always does look richer in the water. Beautiful!

I think that photo is gorgeously golden. sandie

Either way up, it is lovely to behold, Andrew. You inspired me to try a little experiment of my own. Check it out at: http://southenglishtown.blogspot.com/2012/02/abstract-belize.html

With a dead calm reflection it is always difficult to tell, all this the explain why I guessed wrong. Great shot.

Those are so beautiful!
I'm missing the trees and a normal countryside ;-)

Brian King said...
