I apologize, I should have responded to your comment/question.

When I first took the photo, I made the same mental note. I first looked at the image technically, and when I realized I could not reposition myself or the angel to show it "upside right". Then I looked at it more artistically, although that is clearly not my strong suit, and thought the brighter areas of the reflection looked like an opening in the sky/heavens and perhaps someone might interpret the angel as decending from above. To be honest, my goal with this entry was to work on reflections and black and white photography.

Either way, I appreciate your observation.

With 15% to go, I'll go out on a limb and declare this best of show.

That's a pretty cool reflection. I also like the high contrast b&w.
