Photography Tips

Use a tripod, and wait for sunrise. This effect starts around 8 am till 8:15 am (January), depending on the month. Check sunrise timing.

Of course, there are other photographic ways to create reflections, which can be car roofs or profane mirrors or whatever else, every photographer knows that here. But you have specified "water reflexions" as the photo theme, and thus the possibilities are very limited. One should not deceive other viewers with the impression of a lake that does not exist. If you had briefly explained what kind of reflection it is, nothing would have been a problem

@Dietmar: I am pretty sure that it wasn't his intention to trick somebody about it. But really well-seen and a good hint. We should simply add that to the spot description to make sure that nobody is searching for a river or lake here. @Patrick: Great shots. Could you also please check the geo-position? It's currently marked inside a house if I see it correctly? If it's correct, is it a hotel or something others can access as well? Guess that would help a lot to understand this spot :-)
