Thats a stunning shot but you will never see that on the sea except for a sheltered wee cove .... go on prove me wrong guys 
I have another one tucked away in my digital repertoir of loch Glasgarnoch, a man made hydrodam loch , and like the above.. if you turned the picture upside down, you could not tell which way was up

Well there must have been a Blue Moon on Tueday night as we as well you know beat the Tri-nations Champs. The only northern team to win against the southern teams. But as usual no mention on the 'BBC' ( sorry home counties broadcasting corp) of the win
