    Thanks, Bill! I was pretty surprised myself to see what I had there. Funny, if you zoom in and look closely, you can actually see "petroglyphs" on the canyon wall. mwink.gif

    Incredible shot. It took me a bit to realize what exactly was going on, but it was well worth it.

    I was looking for those "petroglyphs" in the original image and couldn't find them. Thanks for the close up! thumb.gif

    Thanks, Walter! As soon as I saw saw how this came out I thought to myself "Walter Feller is going to like this one." I swear it's true. It has your style written all over it. nod.gif

    Sweet shot, Joel! clap.gif

    It's actually giving me a bit of vertigo, like I might fall in and go flying right out into the reflected sky! Nice effect!

    Well Joel, i took a lot time to understand this image. At 1st i thought this is some fish eye photo of extremely deep cliff with blue water in bottom. Then i realized its a reflection !

    Hey Awais, thanks for the very nice compliment! I appreciate you taking the time to figure out the shot. I swear I still get puzzled myself when I look into it.

    Here's the same shot, only with the camera angled up instead of down.

    And here's the original reflection shot reposted here for comparison.
