at first glance, it’s just a person having coffee. but the symmetry, the silence, and the reflection pull you deeper. there’s a conversation here — between self and shadow, presence and absence. the space is sharp and geometric, but the mood is soft. the glowing backlight outlines the figure like an afterthought of light. and the word glowing above it all — disfruta — feels like a whisper of irony. what we see is just half of what is. the rest happens quietly, within.
I'm headed back to Southern Utah tomorrow for the annual Hurricane MTB Festival. I'm really looking forward to riding bikes and hanging out with friends in the desert, even if it is a bit cold and damp this time. And that's ok - interesting weather makes the best photos :-)

The mosque (German: “Moschee”) in the gardens complex is the earliest mosque-style building in Germany. It was built in 1779–1791 by a French architect for the Prince Elector of the Palatinate. Built at a time when the “Turkish” style was fashionable in Germany, it was never intended for prayer but later served religious purposes at various times.
After many years of restoration, and at great expense, the mosque is fully restored and open to the public.

I can never resist a visit to this location, although I hadn't planned to shoot it today I couldn't just pass by while the light was nice and the lake was still, I'd never really managed to get a full reflection of the tree in the frame on a still lake, it's harder than it sounds as you need the right conditions, the right angle, and ideally the right time of year where the tree has leaves to make it stand out from the background (or ideally a really misty morning).
There was a little mist about this morning which always helps, but to a full misty morning would have put pay to the Autumn reflections behind the tree, there always seems to be a sacrifice somewhere! There was one other photographer down here this morning, a Scottish guy, who I was talking to who like me had returned here numerous times in search of something special - (I'd like to see your stuff if you end up reading this), I'll continue to do the same as well, I just really really enjoy seeing the scene unfold through the different seasons, even if you come away empty handed, there's a lot worse places to be standing around at the beginning of a day it's that stunning a place.
Midday long exposures are simply magic. 10 stop ND filter on a Tokina 11-16, showing a little fraction of Sao Paulo in a cloudy afternoon.

You are a mirror of yourself in others. Whatever you want, give. Be the best reflection of yourself.....

It was one of those things that you simply cannot pass. That day there was no wind, so the lake's surface was completely still.
The area is called Staðarsveit, and it's in the southern part of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. And the mountain is called Þorgeirsfell.

You can't take people's opinions personally. Usually what people say about it is a reflection of them own issues.

"There are two distinct classes of what are called thoughts: those that we produce in ourselves by reflection and the act of thinking, and those that bolt into the mind of their own accord."

Reflection Lake on a not so reflective day. Windy, hazy and rainy but still beautiful. Old Denali Hwy.
