Incredible mirage at Norah head

Hi all
Yesterday with a mate we witnessed the most amazing thing, Sydney hovering in the waters south of Norah head lighthouse, even though it should be below the horizon from there.

Could clearly see the buildings (and the airliner) through binoculars.
Image was taken at 9:26 AM yesterday from a point about 100 metres S of the lighthouse.
The effect seemed to be fading when we left about 1/2 later.
