Reflections in still water

I took the freshly out of repair Sony HX200V for a walk yesterday so I could re-acquaint myself with what it's shortcomings were. It's still a pretty amazing little camera to this old coot.

Anyway, we had a rain a few days ago and several low spots, drainage areas were still full of water. This one really caught my eye.

The only PP was to remove a trash bag.

C&C always...

Very Nice Capture...I am always looking for reflection sot opportunities.

I like the attractive reflection and the curve of the branches.

I almost did just that. But it was the doubling effect that I wanted. I need to learn enough PP to darken the upper part to a value closer to that in the pond.

I think it's a lovely shot... Perhaps a circular polarizing lens would have given you a bluer sky

Ah so.

That's one of the problems I'm discovering with my little camera. There are no threads for filters. Smooth as a baby's hinny. Do they make slip-on filters?
