A great fire reflection during the 8 times a year Waterfire celebrations in downtown Providence, Rhode Island. When the sun goes down the people come out to walk a mile long stretch of river filled with giant cemet vases piles high with wood.

very little time for photography so really no opportunity to mess around with film but I have been playing a bit lately with a couple old Nikon manual focus non-AI lenses bought used and stuck on my Fuji XT-1 via a metabones adapter. Very smart of me to wait until the age when my eyes are in decline to start playing with manual focus lenses.
The reflection is my way of trying to find myself. Though, as a teenager, I am not alone, I feel as if I am very unsure of who the real me is and this image shows how I am still searching. I used the layering tool in photoshop to place one image of just the mirror on top of another image of me in front of the mirror showing my reflection. I was then able to erase the area of the mirror on the top layer to show only my reflection.
LOL, I so couldn't do a 365!
I swear if my life depended on it, and my 365 assignment was - Just press the shutter, you don't have to aim or anything, just press the damn shutter once a day! - In about 5 days I would be dead... BUT I'm not doing a 365, I'm just uploading what I feel like when I want to. Regardless of my crappy upload rate...Warning there's a slushy bit coming up... I am having so much fun! You are all amazing, wonderful, creative people and you brighten my day no end! Thank you so much!
Here is a series i did at the Bohinj lake. Absolutely NO photoshop!!
Bohinj lake, Slovenia - feb '07
The reflection of autumn oak leaves, tree branches and the blue sky on the undulating surface of the river. The image has been mirrored and copied twice to be symmetrical, and is best seen full screen.

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.
