How on earth is that done without seeing the photographer???
Fantastic shot! Look foreward to seeing how this was done.
P.s. i am recomending this for disqualification, however from my experience my mark goes UP when I get the "This photo has been validated" message. (No Hard feelings). 8
Edit Monday.I see it has been validated now!! Great stuff!

Cool, way to use the long lens and the sun to hide yourself and the camera! Interesting composition, nice reflections. Heh heh, I can see your footprints. :-)

Upon review I changed my vote days later to a higher score appreciating the perfect composition underlining the focal point. The semblance of a Sherlock Holmes lense to magnify the sun on the horizon, the line of water and trees that take me right into the picture, and the out of focus background that jumps my attention to the mirrored ball.

great choice of perspectives to eliminate (nearly) your reflection. magnificent setting and excellent job on choosing your DOF. The crop lends a great balance to the image. [8]
