Cloud and Reflection

This is another picture I took during our trip to the Alexandra Palace boating lake in September last year. I like this picture because of the reflection of the cloud in the lake surface, but I didn't notice that at all when I took the picture. It was only when I got back home and imported the days shoot into Lightroom that I noticed the symmetry and adjusted the image to emphasize the reflection, boosting the vibrance and saturation and reducing the clarity to give a softer, more dreamy look. After a bit of highlight reduction and shadow boost, the picture is as you see here.
