Reflections

Reflections (Gallery)

These images comprise a set that all have one thing in common: Reflections. When you want to produce images with reflections it’s almost certain that you will look in vain. On the other hand, if you are not too concerned it seems that every other image includes a reflection.

Normally reflection is regarded as a casting back of light or heat, in this topic, I am limiting the criteria to light reflection. The reflection of light adds another dimension to a composition and sometimes leads to a deep study of what the image is showing. If a reflection is cleverly composed the content viewed in the reflection may have more detail than the subject photographed direct (the opposite may also be true).

I find that reflections are fascinating, for several reasons, not least because reflected light is always darker than the incident light.
