Tony, did you turn your computer upside down again? jacko1 - Oct, 13 2009 04:10am Yes Jill, my wife is going to send for the men in white coats:-) horourke - Oct, 13 2009 07:10am Ihaveathought about upside down- The colour of the sky in the lake is much deeper blue than the sky. This phenomenon is universal and when I paint pictures I achieve an approximation of this by adding more redtothe mix for water than for the sky. I presume this has something to dowith the wavelength of the light being modified in the reflection. Any physicist out there with an explanation? I am alittle bit ashamed of my ignorance as Tyndall who first explained why the sky is blue, greww up just twelve kilometers from where i am sitting now!!
