Salzburg Underwater World (Weekend Reflections #13)

This is a reflection of a pegasus statue and some trees in a fountain at the Mirabell Gardens in Salzburg. The coins, leaves and debris in the fountain look like stars to me, also there is a coin or a leaf that looks like a menacing eye on the Pegasus reflection.

It's great to be back and I look forward to seeing lots of great reflections!

  9. Your reflection is very good and I think that one of the reason is that the coin/leaf for the eye!!

    When you talk about Saltzsbourg I want to go there - I have to go back one day.

    Merry Christmas and a Happy new year!!!

  11. Very creative shot. You couldn't have placed the objects in the water any better than they are. It has a rather ghostly affect and looks like a howling wind surrounding everything. Thanks for sharing this spectacular image James.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Awesome.

    I found my little square Kodak print of the gazebo from Sound of Music... taken from a bus in a snow storm. Not the best photo, but still bring back memories 30+ years later!

  38. That's my favourite one yet---it would make a wonderful cover for a fantasy novel I'm thinking!

    Thank you for sharing photos of your trip; it sounds wonderful!
