I took a similar photo! Mine is Christmas light reflecting on a rainy street. Very nice! Mine is a reflection of the light in the St. John's River as it goes through downtown Jacksonville. Here's a shot I took of the city skyline:  Jacksonville's Skyline by ironchapman, on Flickr The first shot I posted comes from right around the reflection near the left side of the bridge. |
