Natures Symmetry

With the weather forecast predicting clear skies and a frost for this morning, I couldnt resist another early morning out in the cold :)

Driving down to the canal, the sky was ablaze with colour in the pre-dawn light and I was getting quite excited.

As I parked the car though, the colour just disappeared, if only I had set off 10 minutes earlier, maybe tomorrow will be as good.

Oh well, as I was there and the water was perfectly still, I guess it was time for a play. With the sun yet to appear over the horizon and very little colour in the sky, the world took on an almost monotone appearance, which I think this shot captured pretty well. I was really surprised how balanced the light was between the sky and the water, but most of all, by the clarity of the reflections

This is almost straight from the camera, just a slight crop and resize, I dont think editing could have improved on what nature had provided, well not my editing anyway :)
