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
Just another one of those 'skyscraper reflection shots'.
I'm from Sweden - that's why I find tall buildings fascinating :)
A week after my first attempts, I went back to the canal and had much more success with reflection shots. Not sure which one(s) I like best.
I stopped off at Blue Heron on the way into Braley. I wanted to look at the Blue Heron pond to see if the reflection shot would work. I have never hit it perfect though. In this case, I drove out to the back of Blue Heron and thought I'd go over to the St.Vrain River to see what I could see. I found out that in October, I still couldn't get even close to the river. I don't Know if it is still running high or maybe it is flowing on one of the bottom land relief ditches and flooding here. I decided I might not get close to the river and it would be right to call this a bayou, an earlier posting which already has a ton of viewings.
I was struck by the amount of water, The river is just barely detectable from here. I worked to get a vantage point at the bank. I wonder what next spring will bring. Ron says he knows of a hidden bridge to cross to access the river. The St.Vrain is not really visible across the pond and the hill in the hole is actually the foothils of the Rockies ner Lyons, Colorado. Eddie said not to wade; I guess that he doesn't know me very well!
I went back again because Ron told me to search for a bridge certain bridge out the back of Blue Heron but that was the one I had used every time before. After working my way around the pond and a bit of investigation, I discovered that to my delight that beaver had take up residency. They can easily accomplish this good work over the night. Plenty of fodder for dam construction. Man, I'd think the trout might take up residency right away if the water company doesn't bust it out right away! If so, beavers can put it right back right away. Casting would be a major difficulty in this thicket. Trees in the water would eventually die if left alone. But, still in all, this would be a good place for a beaver to build a home!
Game people say beaver passes on giardia but they probably would not have been contaminated had we not spread it in the first place. Besides, they are responsible for the little glades and meadows in the Rockies that we all admire and bring us to pause. Their ponds usually end up with dancing trout.
I was on main st going to school and saw this awesome reflection shot so I took it before the light turned green.
Taken at Muskallonge Lake State Park in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The morning was absolutely calm, allowing these reflection shots on the water.
The regulation shot of 2P90 waiting to leave the station. And by 'regulation' i mean one where i am standing upright and not almost horizontal on the platform trying to get a reflection shot!!
In hindsight, I could have framed this reflection shot a bit better, but really, I'm still happy with the result. Here we're looking at the reflection of East Broad Top engine 12, aka "Millie", in the window of the caboose door.
Perhaps a break from the reflection shots for now. I hope to discover a new path that interests me before long but for now, I noticed that the park area is on the glide path to Longmont's Vance Brand (home town boy) Airport and consequently, pilots work on their touch and go practice for their licenses. I have little interest in the plane but I thought it stood out in particular contrast to this subtle afternoon clouding I have traveled here to capture. I am on the same journey at Golden Ponds when I was blessed with a good skies and interesting waters that reflected the great skies. We have been subject to many days with dud skies and I was determined to take advantage of these skies. The clouds are what generated the great reflections on the water around the snags. Autumn is over; I have resolved that my best autumn ever is at a close and I need to switch to a different mindset. I made another loop of the path because we had a break in the overcast and some ripples on the water. Drama reflected by the waters.
I needed a lot more exercise because I have spent too much time at the computer. I got a couple of shots of the foliage in the distance but it is deteriorating so I let it go dark but processed like crazy. I guess this scene just grabbed me emotionally for some reason. I think the close-in water looks like textured shower curtain glass and I like it. I decided to recapture earlier shots. I made the most of the clouds. I see too many scenes ruined by flare from blank skies posted on Flickr and feel sorry for their selection of glass on their cameras. I wish they would opt for better single-focal length lenses instead of those 12-16X zooms.
One of the most you unique things about Venice is that the streets flood during the full moon. This makes for great reflection shots when one can't sleep due to different time zones.
A along exposure, panning, AND glass reflection shot. This one had several very distracting "squiggly snake" lines of light that scream "panning"... so I removed them.
Went out to dinner tonight with a friend. Actually it was his birthday so I treat him dinner at the Parkview Lighthouse Restaurant. Enjoy your weekend Flickrs!

With these kind of reflection shots it's hard to tell how well they came out just by looking in the camera LCD. You have to get the image onto the computer screen to see what's going on, to appreciate the multiple layers of reality that try somehow to come together.
Random puddle reflection shot in Amsterdam. Taken with my HTC Desire using the Camera360 Android app. No editing or magic tricks besides whatever that app did to the picture, no Photoshop :)
I've bitched and complained about this already a lot in the last 3 months, I am currently working 5 instead of my usual 4 days, and this is taking away all the time I usually reserve for shooting pictures and movies, so I have to improvise and take any chance I get to be able to create some photos on my way to the office, or the supermarket, or wherever it is I'm going. This is no fun, and the quality and quantity of my creative output is diminishing on a daily basis, something I don't appreciate and that I intend to reverse as soon as possible. Until then, these quick snap shots will have to do, I hope you're not too upset that you're having to look at these not-so-wicked reflections, lol :D

A walk through Liverpool city centre and some street photography on our way to our anniversary meal on 7 January 2025.
I took lots of reflection shots of these birds and I am still sorting through them. I have better group reflections but not so many good single bird reflections. I liked how this one caught this bird on the move though.
Self reflection shot at the counter of one of the billions of 'Coffee Company' shops that have sprung up all over the best city in the world, like pimples on the face of a teenager when hitting puberty...
I had 'Tiny' with me and we were both excited to learn that free WiFi comes with the coffee...once I was outside, with my extra creamy cappuccino, I wasn't sure which wireless network was the CC's (you'd think they'd call it 'Coffee Company Network' or something, but no such luck!), so I just logged on to one of the many unsecured networks in the area and had a great time Flickring open-air style...it's so good to live in the 21st century :))
P.s. For some strange reason, the Netherlands are one of the very few countries without 'Starbucks'...I'm wondering why that is?! Obviously, you can't make a Dutch person pay 5 euros for a coffee, but still, what's the deal here?!
There is still no snow here in Helsinki,Finland...There was rain showers and +5 c.Today I tried took some wet reflection shots..This is one of them..
A last minute attempt to get another 'reflection' shot for my class task. Taken on a black car bonnet in Sydney. This is the same building, the old Sydney Hospital (thanks to AndyBrii) that's reflected in the street lamp photo.
Bit wet around so i thought it was time to try a reflection shot after all you can get those eyes in stereo, what more could you want?
along with the colourful fallen leaves.
Another reflection shot, but this one came out quite well, and i'm pleased with the leaves being just at the top of the shot.
Monmouth & Brecon Canal, Upper Llanover
i got my first pair of wellies, after my heels/umbrella reflection shot.
i love them. and of course, the very next day, it stopped raining. haha..
oh!! and if anyone is interested, you can buy my instagrams!
This is an image of a snowy egret, fishing for its breakfast at Ackerman Park on April 14, 2009. Ackerman Park is a county park built around a retention pond just east of interstate 75 ( see map ).
There was almost no wind blowing on this morning making for some good reflection shots. This little snowy egret was stalking fish when it stopped for about a minute and I was able to fire off about 20 shots and I thought this one was the best.
The birds usually are fishing along the northern shoreline of this retention pond and I would ride up in my truck, using it as a blind and get a few shots as I rested my 70-300 Nikon lens atop a towel resting on the window which I had down almost all the way with just a couple inches up.
I hope ya'll like it!

Unedited puddle reflection shot of buildings in Amsterdam. I made this one with my Panasonic DMC-FZ8, not Mobie! No editing at all, no tricks, no Photoshop :))
Just like the hidden worlds inside the wicked puddles in the best city in the world, Amsterdam itself has many beautiful, weird, interesting and pretty sights&sounds that the typical visitor often misses, blinded by the humongous amount of museums, drugshops, boat-tours and half-naked Prostitutes shaking their thangs at them...
Not that there's anything wrong with going for the classic 'Amsterdam XXXperience' but still, I can't help but feel that our guests would even appreciate Adam just so much more if only they knew what a charming, stunningly gorgeous city this is, once you take your eyes of the obvious entertainment options and start exploring the backstreets and city-surrounding areas, preferably by bike, discovering the true hidden treasures of Sin City :))
Thank God it's Friday...and I'm off today, yay :D
Have a great day!
Just for fun! I was taking all these shots of herons and that stork and their reflections, and I noticed my sweet puppah getting into the act! I love her tail! Thanks for viewing! =o)

There was still a decent collection of standing water from the recent rainstorms in the area, so naturally the temptation to shoot some reflection shots crept in.
Inexplicably, there has been a replacement up for the older MoPac era signal that is up on a cantilever for going on at least 2 years now that has yet to be replaced.

sorry about the glass reflection ...shot it from inside the car..only realised the folly later...:-(
Shot on iPhone 5.
There are some days a 365 is easy. Had to popped down to Sydney today for work. It had been raining and there were puddles on the ground in the square in front of this building. I waited until the square was clear of people and squatted down to get some reflection shots. I took about five frames and then this woman walked into my shot. There's pic of the day, done and dusted.
