Through the Looking-Glass, a photo from Moscow, Center

Photographer's Note

They say architecture is frozen music, but when you see its reflection on rippled water, you see it defrozen…

I took this shot in Tsarotsyno Park, Moscow, right near the singing fountain.

For more details on Tsaritsyno Park see Her Majesty's (a panorama taken on the same day)

Hello Ilgiz

Wonderful reflection.
You have a great idea to propose it inverted.
The slight ondulation doesn't deform the scene but just adds enough mystery.
A dreamy picture, compliments.

Hello Ilgiz,
This is a wonderful picture. You have created a dreamy quality to this scene by using the reflection. The colours are subtle amd lovely. The two distorted lamposts reaching into the sky are important parts of this composition. A creative and well taken image!
Regards, Ann

Hi Ligiz,
la rotazione di 180° dell'immagine, ha reso il suo riflesso molto attraente, facendolo sembrare una pittura ad olio.

Complimenti! TFS!

Просто артворк! Всегда завидовал людям, видящим такие сюжеты. Отличная работа в импрессионистическом духе.

Saludos y feliz día.

Hello Ilgiz,
By flipping the reflection 180 degrees you make the bridge and the pedestrians look "real", while the gentle ripples of the water create an image reminding me of a painting. It is a very pleasant effect and I like it very much.
Regards,
Gert
