 Thanks so much for the comments & the votes!
This is one of those shots where I was so lucky with several things - first, it rained that morning (we haven’t had much at all) which created the puddle, and second, it happened to form in the perfect spot to reflect the trees. Third, my husband got home from work early and we decided to go out for a walk (I didn’t bring my camera) but when I saw the puddle, I stopped in my tracks said “look at that!” and he said “We need to go back home and get your camera, right?” Lol. Yup.

This is absolutely magical!! (And I loved the story behind the image almost as much as the image itself).

Oh my gosh - I love the story here. Supportive and intuitive spouses are the best. I love that both yours and the blue ribbon winner have their spouses in the images! Makes you think there should be a support group for DPC family members. Congratulations to you!

The style on this screams markwiley to me, though I was expecting him to enter a drone shot for a topic like this. If this isn't from Mark, then take that as a compliment.

You're a wizard, turning pebbles and debris into stars. A magical image.
