A Rorschach Morning

A Rorschach Morning by Mc Shutter.
Morning Reflections
There are times, especially early mornings, when the surface of the lake is so smooth, it's like a mirror. The reflections, especially on a day such as this, can be dizzying.
Lake Emerald, in Oakland Park, Florida -US- near Fort Lauderdale.
Looking southeast from my balcony over the lake, early Monday morning, July 17, 2006.

Much better than looking at ink blots; But did you read anything into the shape.I can see the mermaid sugestion,but that relies on bumps in the cloud.Maybe with the horns its a satyr.
