Doubling Up

Start with a partially frozen lake, a lone gull, a hillside full of homes....add some light
(not too much), from a complimentary angle, and you've doubled your view. The reflection
only lasted for minutes....the sun (only a little to start with) disappeared and the scene
quickly returned to a normal grey January day.

Nice reflections. The gull seems to be enjoying the sunlight too.

Hehehe...I didn't spot the gull either at first! Clever shot, and a good piece of luck to be at the right place at the right time!

Looks like a popular place. The gull makes the picture a bit special.

With the price they fetch, it's a good way to double your capital! Gee! I'm retired since 10 years, and still thinking business.
