Bridge reflections at Hungry Mother
State Park in Marion Virginia.
The Legend of Hungry Mother
via wikipedia:
"It has frequently been noted on lists of unusual place names.A legend states that when the Native Americans destroyed several settlements on the New River south of the park, Molly Marley and her small child were among the survivors taken to the raiders� base north of the park. They eventually escaped, wandering through the wilderness eating berries. Molly finally collapsed, and her child wandered down a creek. Upon finding help, the only words the child could utter were "Hungry Mother." When the search party arrived at the foot of the mountain where Molly had collapsed, they found the child's mother dead. Today, that mountain is Molly�s Knob (3,270 feet), and the stream is Hungry Mother Creek.

Oh! I didn't mean "effect" like a filter. I meant "effect" like the lake acting as a mirror. Heh. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Lovely mirror effect and a beautiful image! L/F

Thanks William - no "effect" used - the reflection was truly in the lake :) And no wind at all. There were a few boys throwing rocks in the lake - so I had to walk around until they left and the water calmed before I could shoot it ;) All in a days work :)
