  2. wow! Great capture,a mirror,something seldom used as an art work,
    it will give a more spectacular shot when the conditions are right,
    maybe at sunrise or sunset.

    1. It was a bit tricky. I had been down there a couple of other times and the sun was in the wrong spot so didn't get such a good shot.

  23. It's huge! It probably gets very bright when the sun shines right on it.

    1. The sun's reflections have scorched the grass in front which is why you see the sprinklers spraying water in front.
