Ashcombe Maze Reflections

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ There are two reflection styles in this photo.
In the forested foreground is a dark reflection in a small pool.
It is one of several pools, staged in steps at the Ashcombe Maze, Arthurs Seat, Mornington Peninsula.
In the background is a lake with a pale, misty reflection.

Strange watery depths
Dark shapes and mystical tones
Libran reflections
