Subjects who wear eye glasses can offer a unique difficulty for photographers. First, there’s the dilemma of whether they should wear them or not (will they not feel & look like themselves without them? Are they hiding fabulous eyes behind those glasses?) And then there’s the problem of glare and reflection. An attentive photographer will pay attention to this factor, but it does cause issues and where a photo might be perfectly composed and lit, but a little glare in the glasses can throw the whole thing off.
All those tips for creating great catchlights? Forget ‘em. Reflectors aimed at the eyes, facing a light source…all these techniques will only show up as mirror-like reflections in the glass.
When using artificial or studio lighting, have your subject turn away from the lights just a tad and pay attention to what’s going on in the glasses.
As if pop-up flash wasn’t already a no-no, it’s even more so when your subject is wearing glasses
A rather strange suggestion is to have your subjects tilt the glasses downward only 1/2 an inch (just push them up from where they rest on their ears). This tiny bit of angle and make a huge difference. In the same manner, you can also experiment with having them tilt their head or the angle from which you’re shooting.
View from the passenger's seat. I shot up throught the windshield to get the most color in the raindrops and still keep the reflection on the car hood.
Reflections on water or on a building always fascinated me, therefore I was lucky to pass by this building at this moment when no cars no rain no etc..
I found this relfection while walking through Wurzburg, Germany today.. I tried to line up the reflection as good as possible with the building next to it so that they looked like they were the same building... I think it turned out ok?
Stopped by Matsumoto Castle for a few minutes early on Saturday morning. I had driven up to Matsumoto the night before and got over to the castle fairly early (around 5:30am). It was a good time to be there (no other people to speak of) and the light was fairly nice, though as the inner grounds weren't open yet I could only get around to 2 of the 4 sides. I ended up with a lot of back or side lit shots because of this but I'm still happy with what I got. After visiting so many times of the years I'm happy I finally have a few pictures of this place that are my own.
One of the most photographed locations on the south island in New Zealand. Lake Hayes just outside of Queenstown is a beautiful scenic lake that has a walk all the way around it. Taken during autumn in April with the autumnal colours coming out and the stillness of the lake creating a beautiful mirror image of the hills around it.

Reflections at the inner loop lake at St. Andrews State Park this morning, not much going on other than fog and a light misty rain.
Week 1 (30.12. - 5.1.) : Capture a Reflection in an Unexpected Surface
- Look for unconventional reflective surfaces (e.g., metal, glass, puddles).
- Experiment with angles to create interesting distortions.
- Focus on the interplay between the reflection and the surrounding environment.
