Part of my Deep Reflections series. These are single images that capture the reflecting surface, what is in front of the reflecting surface, and what is behind the reflecting surface. This allows the brain to recombine aspects of 3 different depths in various ways.
Tuesday morning walk around Austin, TX.
Bare tree branches reflected in a glass block window in Dartmouth. I love the electric play of light and reflections happening in each glass block, and the layered presence of the highlights on the glass blocks that intermingle with the off-set tree branch reflections in the top half of the image. Reflections are so visually engaging.
Digging out old reflections... or maybe not so much as scooping or pouring them out as Chris and Gavin suggested. Thanks, my friends, for teaching me the subtleties of the English language :)))
Autumn has just started to show now, not quite there but the reflections here still doubles the beauty.
No, it's not gratuitous use of the Flood filter, there was plenty of lake in front of this temple; I simply rotated the scene 180 in Photoshop (plus a few other tweaks, of course).
Taken today: Wat Chalerm Prakiat. Nonthaburi.

(One good example of me losing out by not using some sort of grad filter. Towards the light which isn't good ).
Mellbreak at Crummock Water glows orange and mauve as the sun passes by the valley that holds Scale Force beyond the High Stile Range. This is from the Head of Buttermere. I can see where William Heaton Cooper got his fell colours from.!
This is the FAMOUS February 2008 ! Great for reflections.
Took a mental health day off work today, was happy to come across this Kingfisher. I had always thought they migrate south of here for winter, but some more expert birders I met today told me if they have access to open water, they will stay in our area through the winter.
