Just doing reflection shot when ..these geese floated into view....In the shadows of baddesley Clinton

Probably I´m one of the most camera-shy persons here at flickr. Though I really love the camera..... but only if it is not pointing at me. From time to time I find myself in some reflection shots like this one. And I think how odd this shyness is...

Taking a nice reflection shot of the King's Arms in Seaton Sluice when this guy sailed through the shot. I told him I had to take his photo as he sailed on as it's not a shot I was going to capture every day. Quick as a flash, he said, "I hope you get me on the way back with some fish." That's when I realised he had the fishing rod.

for a nice long hike in 85 degree weather :D Plus stopping along the way for some beautiful reflection shots!

My good friend, Steve Riddle and I, hiked to Bench Lake. Steve had told me previously about this beautiful lake. It was clouded over so we couldn't see the mountain. I instead went with Plan B, and took a couple of reflection shots. Shortly after I took these two shots, the water started rippling so I caught these shots just in time.

Explored!

I was in two minds about posting this but thanks to Steve, I did. Thank you so much Steve for being a wonderful friend! :-)

Reflection of my cam in my eye! My first attempt at a reflection shot!

My long runs are getting boring (my normal running mates are injured) so took a bit of a different route. Gave me a reflection shot of a different angle to my normal "went for a run, saw a reflection" shot.

Reflection shot

Last night over the Mackinac Bridge the fog blanketed the air so thick. There was a really good chance to see the lights. The KP was high but the clouds and fog made it nearly impossible. I still managed to get a really cool reflection shot with a glimpse of lights? Maybe I don’t know. But it kinda looks like it a little but I just love the colorful reflections in the water

This is the San Joaquin River near Jackass Meadow. We missed the aspens changing color by a couple of days and I didn't bring my fishing pole. So I set up the tripod and tried to get some nice reflection shots. It was a difficult task because the wind had started to pick up. I had to patiently wait for the wind to calm down enough to get shots like this one. It is such a beautiful location that I didn't mind waiting.

Hello!

My name is Rosanne Rossannadanna and I would like to bring to your attention an atrocity happening right beneath our noses, or should I say above our heads, don't you people look up?!

The centerpiece of the 1962 Worlds Fair is 'getting an upgrade' they tell us it's getting a glass floor and getting rid of cables, but just look at it! This photo clearly shows dramatic changes to the structure that not only is illegal as it's a city landmark, it is surely unsafe! I know me and mine won't go anywhere near anything leaning this bad believe you me! And at what cost? $20 million dollars? That is money that could go to me, or the homeless, wherever. I'm officially calling for the Mayor's head as soon as the city gets one!

What's that?

It's privately owned and funded, and this pic is a reflection shot off the convoluted sides of the EMP?

Never mind....

for those who didn't have the pleasure

Week 29 Reflections

Shot with an Enna "Correlar 80 mm F 2.9" lens on a Canon EOS R5.

It's been a while since I posted a HTT reflection shot.

With green airglow in the sky, we arrived back at the parking lot with a couple of minutes to spare, so we went to a nearby puddle that I had scouted earlier for a quick reflection shot before departing.

Another reflection shot taken on the Ord River between Lake Argyle and Kununara.

Another reflection shot at fish market.

Last December I headed to Chur, a regional capital in the Swiss Alps. I went to high school there at the Kantonsschule. There was a Christmas market in the old part of the town. At times it was raining heavily. I ended up at the Arcas square for this reflection shot. There are concerts and other activities at this square in the summer.

We had dinner at the iconic Old Ebbitt Grill, which is located a stone throw away from the White House in Washington DC. Former Vice President Mike Pence was dining with his family in the booth next to us. After dinner I went by my own for a night shoot at the National Mall. I first went to the Washington Monument, where I met a friendly Secret Service member on a bicycle. We spoke in English, Japanese, and Italian. He speaks 5 languages, like me. He studied Japanese at the Nanzan University in Nagoya, where I used to live for many years. Later I walked over to the Lincoln Memorial. The reflecting pool was mostly solid frozen. I found a spot with water, which invited me to take this reflection shot.

While I didn't have much sun on my trip to the Sioux Falls I did have fun chasing the Dakota & Iowa around and some of the recent rain allowed this reflection shot as the southbound train passed a recently tied down BNSF local in downtown Sioux Falls, SD. 8/28/18

The fourth of five reflection shots, all sufficiently different to merit posting.

Shot on iPhone 13 Pro.

Went for a ride with mates around the river - and stopped at the man-made beach at South Bank to get a reflection shot. Had a couple of different frames but went with this one, with the palm trees offering a balance/contrast to the CBD on the other side of the river. Not bad weather today.

After a great afternoon of photography, the clouds lined up nicely for a few brief moments as the sun set so that I could get this reflection shot.

This was one of my last efforts to get a reflection off of Lake Manly during the morning. This area was protected a little from the wind and gave me a start of a nice reflection. The clouds from the morning had left and I decided to go up to Dante's view to see what the view looked like from there.

The wind is always a concern when trying to get reflections shots and it is compounded when you bring up Death Valley. It is almost always blowing wind here. When I went to the visitor center, the weather for the next day was supposed to have 20 to 40 mph winds. I was hoping and praying that the wind would die down today. Tomorrow wasn't going to work.

After hiking at the Land of Medicine Buddha in the Santa Cruz mountains I went for sunset at the Twin Lakes State Beach in Santa Cruz, California. The sun was peaking through the clouds at times, and the sea was quite rough. Later at the blue hour I noticed a bird walking on a log. I hunkered down to get a reflection shot of the bird and the Walton Lighthouse in the back.

hello Flickr friends....i just got back from our trip in Sedona and the Grand Canyon...we're still in San Diego though for another 3 days and then we head to Toronto for the last part of our trip.....this was one of my first shots of the Red Rocks in Sedona...this one is called Cathedral Rock and i took this shot from a dammed section of Oak Creek which allowed the water to be still enough to get some decent reflection shots.....took a bit of a hike to to get to this place and when you've just driven 7 hours, it gets to be a bit of a challenge too to push yourself to go out and explore right away....with views like this one, i totally forgot right away that i was dead tired....

shot this using a circular polarizer with a tripod, using my kit lens for my D90 an 18-105mm.....pls.View On Black

sorry if i've been slow in visiting your streams lately but i will try my best to catch up with your streams as soon as my vacay is done......have a good one friends!!!!

When you are a travel photographer, you discover some locations quite by accident that turns out to be exceptional. Sparks Lake in central Oregon is one such location for me. I only heard about this spot on my second trip to Oregon, even though we passed through the nearby town on both trips. It was a billboard that informed me about the location. I knew immediately the kind of shot I wanted, and a perfectly calm lake was essential for the photo. This being a mountain pass, my past experiences have taught me that the best chance for a reflection shot is at sunrise.

So we woke up at five and drove up the mountain pass to Sparks Lake to be on time for the sunrise. Unfortunately, the day we picked turned out to be cloudless, and it being summer, the light was coming in from behind the mountain. As a landscape photographer, I have been adept at working with less than optimal situations by then. Since the sky was rather bland, I decided to include very little of it in my composition, instead focusing on the rock formation that I was standing on. I wish I had paid more attention to the polarization effect on the sky, though. But I am still happy with the image.

I was watching this Little Egret hunting in the shallows and waited until it came to an area close-by that offered a chance of a reflection shot.

Taken on the Somerset Levels.

Found a still piece of the stream to try for some reflection shots.

Wet shoes are well worth it sometimes. Do you agree?

After Vik we drove east and for destination Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, located in the south-eastern region of Iceland. On the way we found a still pond next to the road, perfect for a reflection shot. In the back in the center you can see the Fjallsárlón Glacier, to the right is a bit of the big Jökulsárlón Glacier. Both glaciers are fed by Vatnajökull, the largest and most voluminous ice cap in Iceland.

A beautiful small town of Elora, Ontario :)

Taken on our recent holiday to Slovakia.

The previous reflection shot was the spot where this was taken. I had a few perches etc placed about the place. It's not one I have the opportunity to photo often around here. So to be able to get any sort of shot is a bonus for me.

Thanks to all who view and comment on my images, much appreciated :)

We wandered up the beach after the sunrise to catch a few light reflection shots and some pier silhouettes.

After substantial rains in May and early June, I had the luxury of some reflection shots.....albeit with a bland sky. This is an image taken late in the day. The next morning is also featured in my photostream.

We went to visit friends in nearby Saratoga, a town in the Silicon Valley, California. They have a kitchen with a shiny marble kitchen top, which invited me to take a reflection shot.

We're now back in Wyoming and the weather starts to deteriorate. But the moody sky enhances this reflection shot in Parkman, WY.

Because of the high water table, the crypt in Winchester Cathedral is often flooded and only a small flood is needed for the opportunity of some reflection shots.

Standing in receding floodwaters at a Crystal Springs Pond, my first northern lights' reflections shot.

This period of skies dark enough to see stars/northern lights + open (not frozen) water is so brief, I was excited about this opportunity.

Night sky is still pretty bright at 11:40 pm.

Anish Kapoor's stainless steel piece, As Yet Untitled, is begging for people to take reflection shots. There was practically a line.

That's Pam to the right. A stranger is sneaking up behind me.

I arrived in my hometown Schuders in the Swiss Alps, happy and tired. This is a shot from June when I got up very early in the morning to drive across the Swiss Alps to reach Milano Malpensa airport in northern Italy. I stopped at Sufersee (Sufer Lake) before sunrise to take this reflection shot in the blue hour.
