More reflections. As the sun’s angle drops farther toward the horizon and the days grow shorter, reflections are also more clear on reflective surfaces such as water and glass. Even a small puddle will hold a reflection in the darker portion of the year where the sun farther overhead would have shone directly on the surface and either faded or eliminated the reflection.
This was the last bright flash of sun on Chartiers Creek near where I walk.
Beautiful photo. The texture on the water is wonderful.
Katie, it’s amazing how being at the right angle between the light and the water makes the photo.
Monet would’ve itched to paint this, I’ll bet!
Ilene, I look at it and wonder where to start?
