Wow, this image is really amazing.
I didn't even see the reflection until I
read the comments and looked for it.
I think we should all do one of these,
in some form, so we can see what each
other looks like.

Yes, I used a CP filter --- was fiddling with it and my position to get the angle just right, and took a couple of "mistake" photos in which I was still getting a reflection (tide was coming in, and I was playing Beat-the-Clock before getting washed out to sea by a rogue wave, so I was a little harried). Turns out, one of the "mistakes" was this one - which ended up being far more interesting than the more conventional photos I took. (When I first downloaded the photo, I didn't see my reflection in it.)

Very good! Was a polarizer used?

I really like reflected photos and this is one of the best I've ever seen.

WAY cool! I'm not sure I would have found you in there if you hadn't titled this. You should have this one printed and framed! So interesting!
