Ann,
Very nice reflection of the clouds! Ask any landscape photographer which filters you _must_ have, and his answer will be a polarizer and a graded neutral density filter. This shot could have gained from the use of the graded neutral density filter, to bring the tone of the real sky down to a similar exposure level as the reflected sky. As it is a digital shot, and there is still detail in the sky, you could try to obtain something similar with photoshop: I would experiment with duplicating the background layer and setting the blending mode to "multiply". I would add a mask to the new layer with the real sky as the white part (there are several ways of doing the masking, to find out which works best with this shot, I would have to experiment some more). Finally I would adjust the opacity of the new layer to my liking. --Olaf
