No, it's not gratuitous use of the Flood filter, there was plenty of lake in front of this temple; I simply rotated the scene 180 in Photoshop (plus a few other tweaks, of course).
Taken today: Wat Chalerm Prakiat. Nonthaburi.
Apologies, my ISP problems have resurfaced, hence no post and no visits to your images yesterday / today (I'm briefly in the office to post this).

test shot for 6/11/2024 Crazy Tuesday theme: Reflection(s)
There's a pedestrian path just a little bit above this image, and I've caught several reflections somewhat similar to this one of people running and biking by.
(One good example of me losing out by not using some sort of grad filter. Towards the light which isn't good ).
Mellbreak at Crummock Water glows orange and mauve as the sun passes by the valley that holds Scale Force beyond the High Stile Range. This is from the Head of Buttermere. I can see where William Heaton Cooper got his fell colours from.!
This is the FAMOUS February 2008 ! Great for reflections.
Took a mental health day off work today, was happy to come across this Kingfisher. I had always thought they migrate south of here for winter, but some more expert birders I met today told me if they have access to open water, they will stay in our area through the winter.

Sunset reflection. Lake Kukkia, Luopioinen, Finland. 24.5.2018
It was special evening to see plenty of beautiful reflections on windless lake Kukkia surface.
One of my favorite hobbies is to kayak or go slowly with boat during sunrise or sunset on wildless moments. I like to use wide range Nikkor 28-300mm lens which gives me possibility to observe the surrondings for beautiful details. Before the sunset it is more pleasing to see water reflections away from the sun direction. I shoot also directly towards the sun but it really hurts my eyes to even climpse the sun so it is mostly blind shooting in hope to catch something beautiful which can also happen if I shoot very much. However, it is much more pleasing to shoot something that I can really see and focus on. When I shoot from boat or kayak I have to avoid too long exposure times because boat or kayak is always moving a little even in windless conditions. During the last moment of sunset and right after sunset I usually shoot directly to sun direction. I also like to zoom a lot and shoot series of photos to combine as panoramas later. I find that zoomed photos are much more balanced images in color tones than wide angle photos which tend to look small bright spots and quite dark elsewhere. With Lightroom and Photoshop with some effort it is possible to convert even dark wide angle photos to shining sunset images but I don't like to do that too much. For me it is more pleasing that I get the original photo quite the same as the final processed one.

Reflection Canyon was probably the most brutal hike I've done. It was 10 miles each way, which doesn't sound that bad, but it was off-trail, lots of sand, lots of up and down, and there was no guarantee of water, so Matthew Saville and I each carried 7L. Our backpacks weighed 58 lbs each at the start of the trip. Despite doing multiple training hikes, we barely made it.
During the night, I tried to roll over and my hips were so sore that I literally yelled out in pain.
Good times. I may do it again this spring.
This was such a cool location and I was so lucky that I got to take this shot while the weather was so calm that the reflections on the lake were so clear.
Literally, a minute after I took this shot a slight breeze started blowing and made it impossible to get any more reflections in the watter.
I thought there should be pareidolia somewhere in all those reflection photos I took in the Portneuf River a month ago. I think this looks like a cartoon canine portrait. Goofy?
Scottsdale's Reflection Rising is designed by Patrick Shearn. Shearn's worldwide installations compel viewers to slow down and follow the undulating movement of the artwork, which appears to hand in thin air.
Stretching for three football fields along the Scottsdale Waterfront, “Reflection Rising” is the latest large-scale project commissioned by Scottsdale Public Art. Made of thousands of nylon streamers designed to take the air like a kite.
From the surrounding walkways, views of the rippling sculpture will emerge in the reflective surface of the canal, evoking the colors of the sunset. At the Soleri Bridge Plaza, the piece will rise and fall in graceful waves, casting dappled shade and sunlight on those gathered below. The custom-designed work was installed Nov. 13 and will soar above the waterfront, illuminating much of the Arizona Canal through March 2018.
