.....on Blue Lake, St Bathans.
More of the Blue Lake and its amazing reflections.
In 1864, Kildare Hill loomed 120 metres over St Bathans. Within a few years, gold mining reduced it to a 68m deep pit that is now the Blue Lake, the deepest mining hold in the Southern Hemisphere. From the 1880s, miners used hydraulic technologies, which rather like a vacuum cleaner sucked gravel out of the pit for gold recovery. Although a considerable amount of gold was mined at St Bathans, fears that the town would be undermined ended operations in 1934. The huge hole was left to fill with water draining off surrounding cliffs bringing with it minerals which normally form the intense blue colour of the lake. Today the Blue Lake is popular for camping, walks, swimming and other water sports.

Captured at Hellestøstranden, Rogaland.
The setting sun gave beautiful reflections in the wet sand on the beach.
Reflections....the architecture of Jean Nouvel and Frank Gehry.
"Vision Machine"....this is the term Jean Nouvel used to describe his building on 11th Ave. in Chelsea. Here you see it reflected within the glass facade of Frank Gehry's neighboring IAC Building.

Another option for today's CY prompt "reflection"...and totally fits Where I stand today....After a rain and wind storm, the birdbath is filled with pine needles, pine cones, branches and leaves. Today I scrubbed the slimy sides and bottom and refilled with new water. #whereistandtoday#ourwisproject

Reflections of Angkor was photographed during a recent trip to Cambodia in the fall of 2006. Angkor Wat is a temple at Angkor, Cambodia, built for king Suryavarman II in the early 12th century as his state temple and capital city. The largest and best-preserved temple at the site, it is the only one to have remained a significant religious centre — first Hindu, dedicated to Vishnu, then Buddhist — since its foundation. The temple is the epitome of the high classical style of Khmer architecture. It has become a national symbol for Cambodia, appearing on its national flag, and it is the country's prime attraction for visitors. Angkor Wat combines two basic plans of Khmer temple architecture: the temple mountain and the later galleried temples. It is designed to represent Mount Meru, home of the gods in Hindu mythology. Angkor Wat is also the location in which Angelina Jolie filmed the The first of the Tomb Raider films.

On someone's suggestion I came down to Mooney's Bay, by myself.
Then suddenly I came up with an idea to just put the camera down and take a shot of me in this state, whether it focused on me or not. I think it looks just fine, if not better, focusing on the grass.
The idea of self-reflection is quite true: for instance, I don't have school, no job, and no friends at all to hang out with. My whole life is ahead of me.
Mooney's Bay is perhaps one of my most favorite places in this city. Unfortunately I couldn't stay long - I had to get all the way back home, about 14.94 km away. If I had my way I'd have gone swimming, right there. It's a sandy bottom, no sea weed, and the water is beautiful.
It's kind of lonely there too. That's how I feel anyway. Man, the grass did a good job, I love this composition.
Reflection of statues around the Roman Baths. I was drawn to the reflections in the water. The clouds in the sky reflected in the water look like daubs of paint from an artist's palette. The watery silhouettes looked a bit eerie and conjured up times gone by and evoked the atmosphere of the Roman Baths much more than any normal photo of the rooftop could do.
