Leon_Vienna replied to Marta Wojtkowska:

Ok:
I am fairly sure it has to do with the small waves/ripples. They lift up the lake's mirrow every now and then, or better: here and there and send the reflections in a slightly different direction as usual/normal. All those small waves have ONE direction: from down left to up right. Just imagine you lift up, let's say, your pocket mirrow to the same direction, the reflection would get sidetracked ... and now imagine, the whole lake is covered by slightly lifted pocket-mirrows (how many ladies would we need with their pocket mirrows? ;-) ) - the reflections would "seem to flow to the right" ...
That is how I explain it - at least to myself.

(I only do this, because I can't get enough of being called a genious ... :-DD )
