I was looking for a nice reflection in the water when suddenly a duck came out of nowhere and, quite determind I might add, made its way across my frame. As soon as I clicked the shutter I knew I had a keeper!

I really like how the eye is fooled into accepting the body of the duck as the body of its mirrored head. It just looks fitting and complete! I think the distorted reflections of the roof really draw the eye to the duck and work as an incentive to take a closer look here.

Shot on a Fujifilm XT-2, XF35mmF1.4 R.

edit: one less apostrophe

This is amazing. There are many photography competitions in which I am sure this pic would scoop up a prize or two

For those with lack of coffee in their brains like me, this picture is actually upside down. It took way too long for me to figure it out.
