This is so cool...but how did you do this?? #7591536

Thank you for your interest and comment Josie.
The only thing I did to this picture was rotate it 180 degrees. Otherwise, it would have been upside down.
As for the picture, there was no editing. It was all timing and luck. I noticed the girls reflections in the pond. At the same moment a ripple started and that is why the upper portion of their bodies seem to fade away. I just started snapping away and this was the best shot. #7593013
