Went to the dentist very early this AM; he's right by my usual "marsh" vantage point, and there was some icing ont he marsh and this low, warm light. I was struck by how odd the blue foreground reflection looked, and snapped this with the 70-200mm. This is basically straight from the camera, with a slight gradient applied to the bottom 'cuz I like it, and a slight bump up (+_12) in yellow and red saturation.

I frequently find that the sky blues reflected in forground water appear more vivid and saturated than the sky itself. I don't know the physics or optics that would explain it, but I always sort of attributed it to the natural polarization that takes place with light off any reflected surface.
Same effect is visible IMO, in this shot:

One of my favorite things about winter is the cold blue morning light reflecting off the snow.
Pictures from my camera usually come out yellowy, this one needed no color adjustments.
Left comments for you on pics.
