This shot was taken in a coastal town in Oman called "Sur", the town is known for making of traditional fishing shipps (dhow).

I spotted a calm water body nearby the boat and shot from a very low angle (almost touching the ground). I used Nikon Polarizor II to make the reflections more visible.

Minor editing in lighting (dodging some of the highlights in the reflection) #1218475
