“The beginning of love is to let those we love be perfectly themselves, and not to twist them to fit our own image. Otherwise we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.”
~ Thomas Merton
You can't have a light without a dark to stick it in.

My 3rd annual christmas reflection shot.
LOL! It wouldn't be the same without one. The colors are a little off but oh well! Working with limited light these cold winter days! {25 days of Christmas}
This is a picture of a reflection of a clown epiphyllum flower that my wife grew. It lives in a hanging flower basket, which can be hard to photograph, so we brought the flower inside and positioned it so that I could photograph its reflection in a mirror.
Lightting: Lit with a Yongnuo strobe in a 24 inch gridded soft box at camera left. The flash, in manual mode, was triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.
Over the years, I've taken quite a few "Epi" pictures, and they're in my Epiphyllum Flowers album, if you like that sort of thing.

I've photographed a lot of plants and flowers, because they're all around us, work cheap, and never complain. I have an album of these images with over 800 pictures, and for each one, I have described how I lit them, in case you're interested in that kind of thing.

Coloured reflections on the lake. I took this picture as an experiment to see how well I could get the reflections.

Reflections in the glass facade at 166 W 18th Street (aka Yves Chelsea), Chelsea, Manhattan
[GX85-1010676 DxO-PScc]
Taken at the Mountains Lakes Preserve in the Princeton New Jersey area. A little breezy that particular day, but I liked the results that I got.
Went for a little re-edit of an old photo today. It has always been one of my favourites. I loved the reflection coming back, especially with the green of the trees. Felt it summed up the nervous excitement one feels before getting married and the green symbolised a natural unity.

Emoor Bhagavathy Kshetram
Also known as Hemambika Temple (or) the Kaipathi (i.e. palm of the hand in Malayalam) Ambalam (or) Kallekulangara Bhagavathy Temple - {Kshetram/Ambalam are Malayalam words meaning temple}.
The chief deity here is Goddess Hemambika, but the idol worshipped here is an “upraised hand,” behind which there is a legendary tale. The Goddess once agreed to appear before a devotee on the condition he will not disclose it to anyone. But the excited devotee, unable to hold it within himself, told everyone, and when the goddess appeared before him, seeing the small crowd that had gathered there, she vanished immediately, and all that the devotees could see were her upraised hand!
The specialty of the temple is in its unique idol and also the fact that it is surrounded by
water on three sides. The Sanctum Sanctorum (or the Garba Griha) is at the same level as the water in the pond that surrounds the temple, signifying that the deity emerged from there.
Also its believed the deity takes three forms in a day: Saraswathi in the morning, Laxmi in the noon, and as Durga in the evening.
Location: In a small village (read – that was once upon a time a village) in Palakkad district called Akathethara, Kallekulangara, (approx 8 kms from Palakkad town) en route Malampuzha Dam.
