So what's the answer TomRay? I can't figure it out. It's a beautiful picture, though and would like to add it to my collection for a future painting (my other hobby!)

Both of the recent images I posted were flipped using Photoshop. They are upside down.

In the one where the sun is visible, it appears to be below the tree line, yet somehow the full sun is reflected off the water. That is a geometric impossibility.

The other one is not as obviously inverted, but has power lines down in the corner that give it away.

I take sunset pictures almost every night. I put the best ones here:
