Natural Optical Illusion

It’s difficult to see the rock as being behind the tree. It is. Way behind. It is however slightly in front of the reflection of the tree in the water. The shadow of the tree falls on the rock as well but leaves no reflection.
The rock doesn’t seem to mind.
(Did you notice that the tree shed its leaves to cover the sleeping rock.)

– They say that we don’t see with our eyes, but with our mind. How do you feel about that?
– I don’t mind.
