This is a single shot photograph by photographer Keinichi Ohno. Although it looks like
2 photographs taken from different locations connected together, it is actually the
edge of a wall, with its reflection in the water, that creates the split image illusion.
Steve: "I love 'Reflection' shots. Many years ago I was at the NY Botanical Gardens with
my ex. She was standing on a concrete walkway surrounded by grass and trees. On the
floor in front of her was a large puddle with her reflection in it. One of my favorite pictures."
Ever: Ok, too cool. Really like this. Especially the choice to use complimentary
tones (Blue water with the golden of the wall).

is a natural phenomenon where a narrow land bridge appears between Jindo Island
and Modo Island in South Korea, twice a year, for about an hour. This occurs due to
