Reflections are everywhere, from mirrors, glass, car bodies, to
water. Any smooth, shinny surface will cause reflections. Take your camera on
an outing after a rainstorm and look at the puddles to see the many various
reflections that are just waiting to be photographed.
Photography a reflection can take an ordinary subject and turn it
into a work of artistic expression or an abstract form. Reflections stimulate
both the mind and the eye. They encourage one to observe the interaction
between the subject being reflected and the object that is doing the
reflections.
Reflections are often overlooked by many photographers, that I have
talked to.
Below is a reflection of puddle of water being reflected by my car
side view mirror. A reflection of a
reflection. The photo is an old film shot taken around 1985 and reworked in
Photoshop Elements using the dry brush effect, to give the image more of an
impressionistic look. The image was selected as a Finalist in a monthly
international photo contest.
