    Beautiful picture, I love the shadows of those two walking people, you see vague reflection in wet sand or may be water :)

    Thank you. Sometimes I prefer the reflections over the actual capture, which you know better than I as a painter.

    @armentor, And in my opinion this time clouds are reflecting as Red Birds and for sure an great view to explore.

    And due to wetness of land we can see the Mirror Effect on the land and the reflection is beautiful and colourful.

    And these kind of scenes for sure going to heal us and in my opinion we will not going to see these kind of scenes on daily basis.

    And yes, may be Sunrise and Sunset are dreams of the Creator and these aspects are true art for sure.

    Wishing you an great day and stay blessed. 🙂
