Observing Nature – Almost Like a Painting
Reflections of ordinary trees cast vivid, Monet-like, images in the water
Images in Fog – Bass Lake
Fog creates a mystic environment for photographers. While the clarity is somewhat blurred, it adds a bit of mystery to the images. Normally a clear lake on a sunny day, Bass Lake in North Carolina is shrouded in fog creating an eerie image.
Mesmerized by the Reflections
It almost seems like this Mute Swan is mesmerized by the abstract reflections at Swan Lake Iris Gardens, Sumter, SC
Reflections – on Glass Buildings
Glass provides a wonderful mirror to create unusual reflections. The first image is of reflections on glass from the sun shining on another building. The second image depicts reflections of architectural marvels of the Getty Museum in Los Angeles.
Reflections – off a Tuba
An unusual, but creative, use of the tuba’s reflective surface to create artistic reflections of the crowd (including the photographer) attending a concert
Reflections – Psychedelic
Reflections off a glass building cast psychedelic images on an adjacent building adding intrigue to the photo
Reflections – in Landscape
The wonderful thing about using reflections when taking photos is that they can completely alter the image from something fairly straightforward to something richer or abstract or otherwise more artistic. Here is a reflection of the landscape at sunset in a small body of water.
Reflections – on a Car
In reflection photography, using water, windows, mirrors or any sort of reflective surface can change an image into a work of art. Here the shine of an antique car and its curved surfaces and wheel cap create interesting reflections.
Reflections – Surreal
Reflections of a building on glass somehow distort the image making it surreal
Reflections – Monet-like
Reflection photography, also referred to as mirror photography, is when you use reflective surfaces to create an artistic echo of a scene. Here are reflections of trees on a lake creating a Monet-like painting effect. The red kayak adds to the scene.
Monochrome – Foggy Reflections
Even nature provides scenes that capture its serenity in monochrome
Something Red – Reflections
Color has a significant impact on our perceptions, emotions and physicality. Incorporating the color red into photography denotes passion and bold emotion. Because it commands our attention, red brings text and subjects to the central focus of an image. Will be posting this week images with red as a predominant color to attract attention.
Here is an image of abstract reflections on water.
