this is what happened on a quiet evening after spotting myself reflected in my framed pic of Anna Karina...
In the stillness of the night, the Casina Vanvitelliana emerges from the waters of Lake Fusaro like an ancient marvel. The warm lights caress its baroque shapes, creating a perfect reflection that duplicates the elegance of the architecture. The bridge, illuminated by a row of lamps, is an invitation to cross the threshold of time, in a place where history and beauty meet under a starry sky. An image that celebrates the magic of historic buildings and their power to enchant even in the dark.
Persistence paid off as I walked around and around trying to find the right composition for this sunset. It's facing east as the sun lit up the clouds and I got a decent reflection in this little pool.
Reflection nebulae reflect the light from nearby stars. The stars that illuminate them aren’t powerful enough to ionize the nebula’s gas, as with emission nebulae, but their light scatters through the gas and dust causing it to glow ? like a flashlight beam shining on mist in the dark.
Because of the way light scatters when it hits the fine dust of the interstellar medium, these reflection nebulae are often bluish in color.
A reflection nebula called NGC 1999 lies close to the famous Orion Nebula, about 1,500 light-years from Earth. The nebula is illuminated by a bright, recently formed star called V380 Orionis, and the gas and dust of the nebula is material left over from that star’s formation. A second well-known reflection nebula is illuminated by the Pleiades star cluster. Most nebulae around star clusters consist of material that the stars formed from. But the Pleiades shines on an independent cloud of gas and dust, drifting through the cluster at about 6.8 miles/second (11 km/s).

The highlight of this area is Issyk Kul Lake, second biggest alpine lake in the world after lake Titicaca.
But in Cholpon Ata, right next to it is a small pond.
That small pond is not very appealling : it's muddy, dirty, not ideal for a swim.
But for a reflection picture, it kinda works.
There's a lot going on in this photo, but I like the mix of light, reflections and atmosphere inside Temple Church, London.
BNSF 282 and 2296 have a nice snowmelt reflection while spending their time in Willmar between local assignments.
I was somewhat impressed with the clarity of the water in the western Montana 'pond' which allowed such wonderful reflections of this Timber Wolf. I almost think he scared himself with his own reflections.
I believe this is not the best spot for taking the Chongsheng 3 Pagodas Temple reflection. However, as a traveler and photography enthusiast, i needed to find the best lighting with as little tourist as possible.
Reflections on "Loch na Cathrach Duibhe" which is one of two lochs in the Laide Wood,Wester Ross, Scotland.

Here's Andy Sheader taking a shot and a nice reflection in the small tarn on Red Screes above Ambleside.
A day spent in Oak Harbor began with a sunrise line-up off the Toledo District on atcs. With nothing to go on, we dashed to the north bank of the Portage River and aimed our cameras in the golden path of the morning sun. Minutes later, NS extra 300 was across the river with an increasingly rare Throroughbred C44-9W and two cabless slugs. In an era of monotony, a surprise of this nature is warmly welcomed and was the highlight of our 22-train day.
