Up is Down

I had the pleasure of touring Winterthur Gardens near Wilmington, Delaware last week. I found this reflecting pool near the Estate house to be an ideal subject for "upside down" photography. Check out note to see another upside down view of the pool. :-)

Can't quite get my mind to accept this. Interesting effect, Val.

Valfal ^club has replied to RHH ^club

Thanks, Ron. I think it's fascinating how hard it is for the brain sometimes to process what it sees when a very different perspective is presented.

Thank you so much, Jan! It does look natural, that's probably why it is so confusing upon further inspection for a lot of people, lol! :-))

Valfal ^club has replied to Clickity Click

Thank you so very much for your comment, fave and well wishes, Chris! The training is intense, but the leaders who run it are doing a splendid job of not overwheming us. I have another week and a half to go, and then comes the real job! :-))
