• Wordless Wednesdays: The world upside down

  

  I was surprised to see such a clear reflection as this lake is nowhere near clean; I couldn’t resist taking the picture. Beauty is all around us. All we need to do is look with an open mind rather than assume based on perception. Copyright@smithavishwanathsblog.com. All Rights Reserved.
