Thanks Roman the water was really clear so what you are seeing is the water acting like a mirror,it was one of those shots you just take and don't spend to much time composing the shot otherwise you end up missing it.

I think that's a stunning photo. Excellent colour, depth and focus. It looks like an oil painting. The reflection of the Duck's 'rear' is awesome.
