Round Robin
Challenge. YAY!!! This one really grabbed me ... I knew
immediately that I was in!!! Reflection photography excites me
the most, thanks Cheryl, a.k.a. BoiseLadie, for
this great challenge. I have three shots for this selection, well
four ... okay! I have five, but heaps more in archives!!!
Thank me for my self control.
This first one, is possibly my "first ever" reflection photograph, and
one
that has spurred on the excitement ever since. Ducks at a man-made
pond at our nations capitol. This particular picture was taken
just after my very first photography class, and today I can see some
techniques paying off.. Trust me, the pictures did get better
after a time.
Here is a photograph that just HAPPENED the day after the
challenge was announced. I went out to get a photograph of the
apple tree in full bloom before the wind knocked off most of the
blossoms. Mysteriously, yet perfectly timed, a clean window appeared.

This third photograph is my favorite reflection photo taken in at Indian River in Theresa, NY this past autumn.

Here is an attempt at skillfully capturing a dragonfly before it notices and flies away.

I was totally honoured when my niece called me up asking me to do
her university graduation photographs. We loved how these came
out!

The Theresa and Dragonfly were so fantastic my jaw dropped. They were all great reflections and your niece is gorgeous.

I was hoping you'd feature your angled shot of the shed, it is my favorite. And what can I say about our neice, I'm sure its impossible to take a bad shot of her, but these are exceptionally beautiful.
Fantastic photos! Love them all...
Great job...
Nancy
What a variety all around. I'm so glad you were able to capture the dragonfly before it skittered off<g>!
Congrats on a fun entry!
Tess
Fantastic photos -- I couldn't pick a favorite! Very clever to take the photo on the diagonal in order to get all of the building's reflection. Great entry!

GREAT PORTRAITS!
These do remind me of shots I took many years ago, with the reflection.
