Lots of rain over the last week or so.  This has made me aware of the reflections in puddles, large and small.  As I walk out with Blue, I see these small puddles, like little holes in reality, showing another version of what we are so familiar with.  Hence this photo of the castle and reflection.
I have taken several versions and found that in order to get low enough to get most of the castle in the reflection, I need both a decent sized puddle (obviously) but also to be able to get the camera close to the ground.  If I were fitter and younger, I would be able to hunker down - and be able to get up again.  But I've found an alternative, provided nobody is around to see me.  I turn my back on the scene and bend down and take the picture between my legs.  Clever, eh?
