Wow!... How?

Thanks jimmy. It's just one of those globes you see in flower gardens. Almost deleted this one as I didn't like it, posted it on FB and got some positive feedback from it so decided to keep it.

Ah, yes. Very simple, but spectacular efect. I think that I have to ad a globe to my accesories.

That is a nice effect, I am a sucker for both reflections and spheres.

I tried something similar, but did not turn out nearly as nice, mostly due to my lack of composition but also the surfaces weren't smooth enough.

A wider lens, and a different angle could make a change. i think.

The picture was actually accidental as I was initially just trying to capture the flower. Glad you guys liked it.
