Several years ago when my grandson Chris and I were playing in the Mississippi River near my home, I noticed some patterns of light in the water. I took pictures of them and got some quite remarkable images. We were around (and under) the bridge that takes you onto the island where I live. These reflections were only visible in bright sunlight and only when viewed from under the bridge.
I went there today, hoping to use one of these images for my blog. The sky was clear and and bright – just a perfect day. Unfortunately, by the time I got there the sun had gone too low in the sky and the reflections were not as vivid. I’ll have to go back another day. However, I was in the water under the bridge with my camera, so I took this shot. When I got home I used Photoshop to give it a slightly mystical look using something called the Orton effect.
If you’re curious about what that is, Google will help.
