Canon 5D Mark II + Canon EF 24mm L f/1.4 II @f/1.4 / ISO 800 / 1.6sec.
Shot oct.25th in Laksvatnbukt / Balsfjord.
Supposed to be a really high activity, but it did not show. We also had cloudy weather the whole night, about to give up then about 1am the sky cleared up and we got a small show. Very very clear water and absolutely no winds giving a really crisp clear mirror-like reflection here by using a short exposure time.
PLEASE PLEASE no flashy big group icons!! Real comments are always welcome, positive and constructive negative, but PLEASE spare me of those fancy flickr-idol logos!!
Dune looking for his friend "Rusty" the Cat. Whenever we say his name or even spell it, he goes looking for him.
Now that I have no more inhibition with post processing, I'll just go ahead and explore reflections in any way possible :))
This large, ornate piece captures a subtle moment of life, reflecting the transient activity just beyond the frame. The rich patina of the woodwork gives the scene a mood of quiet, timeless elegance.
This shot was taken while leading a group of six and seven year old children on a spring nature walk through a wooded urban park. One child called our attention to a tiny water strider walking along the surface of the water, a lesson in water surface tension itself. I noticed the vivid reflections which appeared particularly brilliant and unusually colorful as a backdrop against the radiant verdant tones of the bright, fresh, leafy vegetation. The contour of the beech in the right foreground created a serpentine focal point. The bed of soft textured moss provided yet another of nature's nascent enhancements. The effect reminded me of an impressionist painting, an observation that shall be shared with the children as a entry point into that art form. I had set my Olympus E-510 on its "Vivid" mode which helps to account for the brilliance in those backgrond reflections.

Used the Figge Art Museum as a base for this shot. Flipped the image (more dramatic looking down than up)
and then layered in a nice sunset.
Reflection of El Capitan and the "three brothers" in the Merced River at Yosemite's "Valley View." Yosemite National Park, CA.
The seaport city of Nampo is one of the larger cities in North Korea. After Pyongyang though, everything seems small and quite different. Located just 50km southwest of Pyongyang, Nampo is more industrial. If Pyongyang were San Francisco, then Nampo would be Oakland, just a bit further apart.
This is one of a three part series of shots taken of a reflection on a glass tabletop. In each shot I chose a different point of focus, resulting in three dramatically different images.
Angkor Wat is the world's largest religious monument, built in the early 12th century during King Suryavarman II's reign.
The vast temple was built in honor of the Hindu God Vishnu.

Actually I don't like the floor in my flat so much. The fake marble pattern can look quite dirty and distracting in pictures. But in the recent Galleries 263, 260 and 254 I've noticed in some images there is a nice shine on the floor. So I have tested different lighting settings to achieve the best mirroring and gave the floor a thorough cleaning with a high-gloss floor detergent. The mirroring is still weak, therefore the shadows from my body must overlay the reflection in order not to fade the mirroring. The only way I could handle this is to face the flashes agains the walls behind me and not to light up the mirror image too much. After some tests I think this is the best I can do. The reflections add another interesting component to the images, which I really like. What do you think?
Stay safe and healthy!
