  1. What in the world IS that? I am no good at deciphering this sort of puzzle. But you're right, it is very beautiful, and wherever it is, for me it certainly will be unexpected.

  2. I think it's the sun reflecting off the bottom of a pool with a small tile pattern on the bottom. Probably not taken today...I thought it was cold in NZ!

  3. just as Sam does, wethinx its water (with movement/ripples/yadda-yadda) and its in some type of tiled pool.

    since there a straight edge on the right-side, we'd say its either a wading pool,
    or
    ta-da!
    pooled water in a shower; which would account for boththe apparent shallowness AND the water-movement.

    dooze weeze gotz da prize? :-)

    thank you for another intrigue, Kathy.

  7. With that grid, it must be a window reflection.
