Leaves are rapidly disappearing from the trees, so the timing of catching fall colors is pretty hit-or-miss. We took a leisurely stroll in our nearby Ellison Park, but well before the changes began. If the sky is blue and the temperature mild, then you have to go outside. Speaking of blue, it is curious how much bluer the reflected sky appears compared to the actual sky. I did not have any filters [other than UV] on the lens, nor do anything in post-processing to enhance the color. Did the act of reflection polarize the light to enhance the blue [any optical physicists out there?]?
Whatever the answer is to the above question, here the reflected sky looks normal in the shot below. I deliberately included some floating leaves to help you figure out that this represents a reflection.

Wow, a really deep blue, and super shot, you were certainly there at the right time. Sorry I am not related to anyone in the scientific field for any help at all re the deep blue colour . I looked it up on Google, and there is so much detailed info, and many long words, but explains it all once you get through those. I'll leave it to those who are the experts!! Greetings from Jean.
Sky reflection shots are always so interesting!
Happy Sky Watching!

I am breathing in the fresh air from your photograph.
I love your reflections (and the photos are great too♫♪) I'm not an optical physicist!
So lovely and autumnal!
Also, ich bin begeistert von deinen Fotos und deinem Blog.
Daher habe ich mich gleich als Follower eingetragen.
Danke auch für deinen Kommentar bei mir über die " Mandarine" und den Vergleich mit den Fahndungsfotos!
Ich musste schmunzeln.
Einen schönen Abend wünscht

Wonderful reflections! Gorgeous shots!
Neat reflections. I like how the water makes the tree look wavy.
