Planet Lines Across Water
When light reflects off choppy water, it often appears as a line rather than a spot. This is because the uneven surface provides many points from which light can reflect and still reach the observer. This effect is commonly seen with the Sun at sunrise and sunset. The image shows this phenomenon with planets reflected across water in Ibiza.
