    Cheryl,

    Greetings. What it looks like is a reflection off of water with some greenery growing on the bottom... but the greenery isn't as green as what I would expect for water grasses... so I'll guess that the watery reflection is a effect and this is of grass against the blue sky.

    That said, I particularly like the light on the left side. I can feel the sun over my shoulder.

    Cheers,

    -Michael-

    Well water and sunlight reflecting on it ...but that looks too obvious so it's likely to be something else....any hints ?

    I was thinking water, also, but must be wrong since it seems too easy. Love the flowing lines and colors. The blues are gorgeous.

    Hi, Michael, Phil and Nancy, it is easy - I just thought everyone would try to make it hard (which would make it hard). It's a reflection of a palm tree trunk (on the left) and water flowing. I used a slow shutter speed and the water was moving. You can see a reflection of another palm tree's fronds at the bottom edge. There is an alligator pond at the St. Augustine Alligator Farm that always has nice reflections and shade and it's usually my last stop on my way out.

    I was going to say the same as others: it looks like trees reflected in water so it is probably something else. Then I was going to guess that it was trees reflected in the windows of a building. So, I was both right and wrong. It's a really pleasant image with the waves and colors.

    Beautiful reflections with nice movement in the water. I figured it was water and sand but didn't know what the green was.
