Reflection at Gator's Dockside

Gator's Dockside is a restaurant noted for its steaks, hamburgers and French fries and its large selection of beer. It is divided into two sections, each of which has a number of large television sets on the walls, all of which are broadcasting sporting events.

The outer section looks out over the parking lot. But between the two sections there's a large window which you see in this photo. The photo was pure serendipity. I looked and saw reflections from the outside, reflections from the sporting events, people on the other side of the glass, as well as lights and colors. For example, the girl you see on the other side of the glass is one of the hostesses who greets patrons as they enter the restaurant.

That is very cool that you got so many different reflections---as you say a fortunate discovery.
I am not good a getting good reflections. Dunno why--just me I would suppose. MB
