Balboa Island, Newport Beach, CaThe two people walked into the reflection and I'm glad they did. If you look very closely you might be able to see the black statue of a boy sitting under the tree at the top of the stairs that lead to the water or in this case the land because this is upside down.
In case you couldn't tell, almost everything in this photo is an upside down reflection on water. :)

That is a fabulous picture, James... I had to stare at it several seconds to get it... Very tricky, and very clever : I simply love it !
I like this one. Very clever and unexpected.
Oh, I love your upside down reflection, James! How clever you are! Hope you have a wonderful weekend! Enjoy!

Way cool James. I really like the composition. Glad those two walked into your image.
nicely done!!!
I had to consentrate to understand this reflection. Great photo!
Delightful reflection! That certainly is water front living.
Very clever and your title is spot-on, very surreal.
I bet you don't miss the weather here, the heat index @ 11:30AM is 118 DEGF!!!
Very artistic! The bobber or buoy is what captured my attention at first.
o very neat and nifty indeed
One of your best lately! Happy weekend!
I love surreal and this is so wonderful!
I absolutely love that shot! Took me a little while to figure out the 'flying' ball!
This conveys a feeling HEAT! As if the air was thick... Very nice, James! (I've got an upside down image waiting in the wings... inspired by a much earlier post of yours. LOL!)
this is soooo trippy. I love the float. thanks for hosting reflections every week. hope you have a grand weekend James.
Wow, James—that is SO cool!
Way cool!
It took me a minute to figure out the buoy.
Have a great weekend.

EXCELLENT!
Hey James, I was lured back by Weekend Reflections and this very surreal post. I don't feel so bad now after reading Sunny's comment up there. That buoy just had me mesmerized. I was actually trying to turn my laptop upside down in an effort to decode this! I looks like you are really enjoying being back in SoCal and taking full advantage of all the amazing watery reflections right in your own backyard.
This is brilliant! I confess it took me a second to figure it out... :-)
What an eye you have my friend. This is spectacular. It took me a minute to get it in the beginning but the beauty of your photography shines through after looking at this for a while. Brilliant. Have a wonderful weekend.
I especially like the buoy.. it seems to be strangely floating. It's the disturbing detail that gives sense to the picture!
What a perfect way to show a reflection, James. It's wonderful.

Un cliché impressionnant, bravo une fois encore.
I had the same moment as several others who have commented ... the buoy threw me off for a minute! I had to chuckle at "Stickup Artist" turning the laptop upside down!!!
This is one of my favorite Reflections pictures ever, by the way!
I thought it was upside down but I'm glad you confirmed it. :)
This is so cool.....I'm still trying to figure it all out. Great shot James. Happy weekend to you.
Agree 100% with 'Tsuki: stupendous shot.
wow! this is the most interesting shot I've ever come across with. this is worth a spot in a gallery!!! Very nice!
That's a wild shot!
Very cool shot!
How nice ! That's funny because I have hesitated whether I should turn my pic upside down ... you did it with yours and it looks great ! happy weekend !
The reflection is fascinating with many cameo stories happening simultaneously plus a dreamlike quality! Beautiful!
Wow, surrealistic indeed! Love this photo:)
Love this shot ! This is very neat and clever ! Bravo !!!
Neat shot, James. I knew it was upside down, but the figures are so compelling, that I wanted to think of it as though it was taken through wet, ripply glass!
Incredibly clever! It didn't occur to me at first that the entire photo was a reflection! Terrific capture!
That's pretty cool James!
It certainly disrupts our perception of the scene to see it upside down, like watching Hendrix play guitar, backwards... Continue please to escort us into your wonderland...
The reflection of the kayak looks brighter than the Kayak itself.
Wow! cool reflection James. Looking at it I felt like I was solving a puzzle!
Have a great weekend.
Nice. I thought my glasses need adjustmwent at first :). Happy Weekend James.
That is just brilliant! Beautiful and oh so trippy!
Fantastic shot, James! I love it.
Very clever:) Great shot!
Now that's an amazing reflection!
That is really neat.
I always like your upside-down photos! :D
Neat idea James, thought my eyes were blurred to start with,lol, then it dawned on me cause its upside down.
Great shot.
This is the coolest photo! I just had to stare at it for a while to figure it out.
That's so awesome you get to go to Europe this year! Fill me in on where you decide to go. I'll just live through you for the time being :)
If you can remember the html for larger photos that would be great, but don't worry about it if it's too time consuming. I know how those types of things can go!
I like this shot ! It's amazing.
Sorry for my english...
J'aime beaucoup cette photo qui m'a réellement laissée perplexe le temps de comprendre...
Ma 1ère participation sera en ligne dans quelques minutes.
Bonne nuit !
I was wondering why you had posted such a blurry shot until I read your caption. Clever!!
Rosie
