Hello, photography and nature reflection lovers!
This post is dedicated to the Reflection Hunters contest, with the theme of the beauty of sunrise and sunset reflections in rice fields.
🌄 Sunrise: The Beginning of Life
That morning, the air was still cool and the dew had not yet completely dissipated. The golden rays of the sun began to creep in and gently touch the surface of the water in the newly irrigated rice fields. The reflection was so clear, it was as if two suns were greeting each other from above and below. This atmosphere created a serenity that is difficult to describe in words, a moment when nature and new hope merge.
🌇 A Poignant Closing Sunset
Meanwhile, as dusk approached, the sky transformed into a reddish-orange painting. The silhouette of the rice paddy embankments provided the perfect frame for the reflection of the setting sun. The shadows of the clouds on the water's surface seemed to complete the visual poetry created by nature. It's a time of reflection, when all activity slows down and nature invites us to be grateful for the day we've had.

Thank you to the @olgavita team and the @hive-179017 community for this inspiring contest.
Let's keep hunting for reflections, because reflections aren't just about light, but also about ourselves as the observer.
