This is interesting. I did not see this when I came to visit. Your sun is very good in the photo. I wish some rays were present. The yellow underlight on the cloud is nice. Maybe a little less sky.

Is this a reflection?
 11/11/2005 05:44:47 PM
not really fond of inverting a landscape picture...
 11/11/2005 03:40:49 PM
Cool! Is this a reflection or just upsidedown?

Up side down? On purpose?

They say if you can hold a photo upside down and it's still good, that it's a great photo. This one works and the idea is both creative and funny. 10

Very nice shot (even if I have to stand on my head to get it!)
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very nice reflection shot! I can't find nothing nothing wrong with it. Well executed.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Beautiful sunrise. However, without mentally flipping this picture and taking it as it is, I just can't give it the score it deserves. I am unsure whether it is a reflection or not, it would be easier to tell if there was some point of reference.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/09/2005 03:21:46 PM
Very original. Good job.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/09/2005 01:30:52 PM
hahah.
it took me a minute to figure out why this is upside down... but now I get it... nice way to "make your photograph as refreshing as you can." :)

This is a very nice shot, I just wish it wasn't upside down. I like the expansive sky.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/09/2005 12:50:19 PM
Upside down on purpose?

Upside-down from the "land down under"? :) Cute! Nice clouds and silouetted trees.
