In Part 10 of our Through the Lens Series, we bring you stunning photographs of architecture reflected in water. There is something magical about the symmetry created by this natural element. The still water adds a calming ambiance to the composition of the images, and accentuates the form of the structures – either acting as a perfect mirror or giving a diffuse touch. Below is a selection of 10 images from prominent photographers such as Lu Hengzhong, Yao Li, and Nico Saieh.
