Unedited water reflection shot of Amsterdam. Taken with a Sony HX200V. No editing, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
This Autumn season is really spoiling me with plenty or rain, new puddles get created almost every day and I really have to force myself not to spend all my time hunched over wet spots on the pavement, I mean, really, there are more important things in life then to take photos of wicked reflections, for example...hmmmm, can't really think of anything, maybe I'll come up with something while I'll shoot some more puddles, lol :D

Courtyard Window Reflections. Getty Center, Los Angeles, California. March 28, 2015. © Copyright 2015 G Dan Mitchell - all rights reserved.
Curving window reflects the courtyard of the Getty Center
This curving wall of tinted windows is a favorite subject of mine at the Getty — I have photographed it several times, in fog and rain, with people in front of it, with people behind, and the structure alone. People often move across the courtyard area in front of it on their way to other places, so I can catch people in motion against this background. In fact, one other series from this visit includes a child jumping and hopping his way across. Frequently people will appear momentarily between the columns leading into the distance at the right, too.
This was a very clear day, so the light is crisp and the reflections are very visible in the curving glass. The color of the glass almost reminds me of the water of a swimming pool, and I wonder if the architects thought about this when they designed this aquarium-like rounded building with its many windows.

On the 15th November 2018 I decided to take a walk through the centre of the city of Glasgow. There are so many points of interest that it can be difficult to settle on what it is you want to capture from a walking style photoshoot. On this one, I decided I wanted to capture a typical day in Glasgow as seen by the many people who pass through it but maybe never have the time nor inclination to stop for a moment and actually take in the surroundings.
This small series of images show a very interesting building which looks like it has long since gone out of use in the Charing Cross / Dowanhill area featuring a large bust at the front of the roof, reflections from the window of a coffee shop on Ingram Street, The Gallery of Modern Art, The Cameron Memorial Fountain which has a great story to it, and the long since closed and out of use Charing Cross Victorian Toilets, so you may find yourself feeling needy while seeking another loo somewhere.
I was photographing the opening of a new pool on the tiny island of Tomma in Northern Norway, when I decided to look for something a bit different.
As I was taking some pics of the kids, standing all lined up and eagerly awaiting the opportunity to jump into the new pool, I looked down and noticed how the tiles lined up well with the reflection of the children and the big windows behind them.
It was a shot just waiting to happen.
The famous reflection of the Black Dragon pool. In the distance you can see Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. Yunnan, China.

On the very western edge of the county border between Derbyshire and Staffordshire, the footpath to Alstonefield crosses the river dove at Nettly Knowe.
For my final project I tried the technique of taking photos of reflections in a mirror. I didn’t necessarily look at one specific artists work. I was scrolling through the Pinterest inspiration board when I saw that some of the photos were using mirrors, so from there I did a Google search and found a lot of cool photos that really sold the idea for me. I noticed that with a lot of the photos had the model holding a mirror and in the reflection was the scenery in front of them. It made it look like they were missing a section of themselves. For some of the photos I had to get at a certain angle that would allow me to get the reflection the way I wanted it to look and without me getting in most of the photos.
If I had thought of it earlier, I would have gone to the store, bought a mirror and tired doing portrait type pictures.
The little stint (Calidris minuta) (or Erolia minuta), is a very small wader. It breeds in arctic Europe and Asia, and is a long-distance migrant, wintering south to Africa and south Asia. It occasionally is a vagrant to North America and to Australia.
Its small size, fine dark bill, dark legs and quicker movements distinguish this species from all waders except the other dark-legged stints. It can be distinguished from these in all plumages by its combination of a fine bill tip, unwebbed toes and long primary projection. The call is a sharp "stit".
The breeding adult has an orange wash to the breast, a white throat and a strong white V on its back. In winter plumage identification is difficult. Juveniles have pale crown stripes and a pinkish breast.
An apparent hybrid between this species and Temminck's stint has been reported from the Netherlands.
Various reflection shots, need to view all 5 in the set to fully appreciate. Taken with my Nikon 35mm SLR film camera and tripod, hence no exposure stats
