Photo taken at sunset while I was canoeing on a local lake several days ago. The front (bow) of the canoe is in the foreground. Green lily pads are immediately to the left. The flat calm water is glassy and reflective and extends to the horizon where green trees are seen lining the shore of the lake. Green trees are also on each side of photo framing the photo. Reflections of all trees as well as distant orange sunset are seen in the water.

A stream in the foreground leading to a line of evergreens in midground and the Teton mountains at Schwabacher’s Landing in Grand Teton National Park Wyoming. It is particularly beautiful in the spring when the mountains are still snow-capped.

By Kaye Menner Photography https://fineartamerica.com/contests/early-morning-or-late-afternoon-or-night-in-australia-photography-only.html?tab=leaderboard Photograph of the infamous Luna Park at golden hour showing its reflections and the sunset sky in the harbour / harbor. I captured this image towards the end of the festivities of the Australian Navy Centenary in October, 2013. Golden hour can have so much power and make photographs look seemingly different to their normal daytime view. I await this time of day for the amazing light/glow and hue that the sun offers our planet Earth whilst setting. [From Wikipedia] Luna Park Sydney (originally Luna Park Milsons Point, also known as Sydney's Luna Park) is an amusement park located in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Luna Park is located at Milsons Point, on the northern shore of Sydney Harbour. Luna Park is one of two amusement parks in the world that are protected by government legislation; several of the buildings on the site are also listed on the Register of the National Estate and the NSW State Heritage Register. The park has been utilised as a filming location for several movies and television shows.

Droplets of rainwater settled on a shiny silver bollard pick up hints of the neon shop frontages on Buchanan Street and a shallow depth of field creates the blurry pink background and the outline of a passing stranger

Rainwater pools on the black marble surface of a low bench in St Enoch Square, reflecting a golden neon light from an LED advertising panel high on a shopping centre

Blue neon lights from a tower block hotel on Argyle Street are reflected in a large puddle and as traffic drives past the reflection is warped, creating distorted ripples

Rainwater pooling on paving blocks creates a small puddle in which the red neon lights and oriental writing from a restaurant are reflected
