Reflection in antique trailer at Enchanted Trails Campground in Albuquerque, New Mexico. You can even rent one for the evening to experience history. Drawn on iPad 3 with Sketchbook Pro
The series continues!! This one differs in that leaves in the water are a prominent motif, and the moss of the rock gives a nice color contrast.
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.
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.
