Oh my!  This is all beyond my expectations!

Thank you so much Christo, Maria, Mike, Wayne, Helle, 3DGuy, Steve and Mies.

I have a bit of catching up to do.

Work - it is a four-letter word!

I'm so delighted to see all these wonderful shots!  :)

 

(And tickled that you chose one of my gallery posts for an example ... Chicago's "Bean" is such a great place for reflections!)

Welcome to the party, Carin and Tara!

The beach is always 'cool' for reflections!

I had a feeling that you would submit one like that, Tara!

It seems i missed the reflection challenge e-bots again.

Such amazing uploads that i have missed.

The director of our Power Station asked me to take pictures of our demin plant,Boiler house and turbine floor and i did so and found some reflections.

My first a green painted window reflection inside a puddle of water on the boiler house floor.

My second a reflection in a ppol of rain water on the outside of the power station building of the structure where the conveyer belts are situated which feed coal from the coal plant to the boiler bunkers.Blessed day and week.

God Bless.

I like your reflections, Christo!

Oh, I didn't know if I mentioned it right.

'll Just add. It's not that you see through that window that street .
But it is the reflection of the street after my back, by taking the picture of that shop-window.

myrrhluz ( ) posted Sun, 09 December 2012 at 7:45 PM

Gorgeous clarity in yours Tara.  The interior and exterior is joining in fascinating ways. The lights loom over the buildings and the postcard rack is huge. 

I love your images, Clive.  Very creative.  I like the fact that the handle on the coffee pot is almost totally obscured.  The whole dynamic with the hand is more interesting that way.  Beautiful clarity on both.  The candle in the pitcher is beautiful.

Jacomina, I love the way the reflected buildings and the street come all the way to the edge of the images but you have to look harder for the part that is shaded. There are two more reflections of the whole scene in the goblets, and I don't know where the ghost like goblet stems in the more lit section are coming from. It looks like there are goblets stacked on top of goblets.  Wonderful shot!

Great captures, Christo.  I love the way things look more exciting when reflected in puddles.  I've taken some similar ones at the car wash and lube shop where I work.  The bottom puddle looks a little bit like a map of Great Britain.

Wonderful reflections myrrhluz.

Did not even think that one of the puddles could be compared to a map of Great Britian.

Thankk you for giving your thoughs and spotting the map in the puddle.

God Bless.


auntietk ( ) posted Sun, 09 December 2012 at 10:14 PM

@ Jacomina -- Your reflection shot is wonderful!  Right up my alley!  :)

 

@ Christo -- I love puddle shots, but haven't managed any yet.  I like what you've done!

 

@ Lucinda -- Love the roller derby!  :)  Is that polished linoleum?  It's a marvellous surface!

Great challenge. Sitting on my fireescape-aka "the veranda" this evening at caught the sun reflection off the Parc 55 hotel.

myrrhluz ( ) posted Mon, 10 December 2012 at 12:42 AM

Thanks Christo and Tara.

I don't know what the floor is made of.  I'll have to go back some time and concentrate on the reflections.  I had never shot pictures of a roller derby before when I shot these and I was just hoping they would come out at all.   There were several images that I thought would have been a lot better if I had pointed the camera down a bit to get more of the floor.  It was great that they had a lot of colored lights hanging from the ceiling that did nice things to the reflective surface of the floor. 


myrrhluz ( ) posted Mon, 10 December 2012 at 12:47 AM

Lovely capture costapanos! I like the soft reflections on the bricks too.


dochtersions ( ) posted Mon, 10 December 2012 at 1:31 AM

Thanks everyone.

I wrote a lot of text, but closed the wrong page on my pc (wanted a picture click away, did it wrong.)
Now, I am not able to start again.

Sorry, till later on.


myrrhluz ( ) posted Mon, 10 December 2012 at 2:23 AM

No need to apologize, Jacomina.  I so know the frustration you're feeling.  I hate it when I do that!  A great big hug to you, dear friend. :)


dochtersions ( ) posted Mon, 10 December 2012 at 6:32 AM

Thanks for the hug, dear Lucinda. It takes a long time for me to type (in English, but anyway I'm a slow writer), and indeed, such a shame everything was gone.
But among other things I had written about that beautiful dress of the girl, and the many reflections on the latter, those legs, those sweaters with stripes, the American flag, and that it was my idea, you could not have done better with your camera, my friend!

@ costapanos, I very much like the mood which is to see on the windows and brick on the photo of you.

The little girl was dressed as Pebbles from 'The Flintstones'.  I also have a couple of pictures of her dancing.  She was having a great time.

Great to see what you have captured, Mies, Christo, Lucinda and Costa.

There is so much to see, reflections of our lives and parts of the world.

This was taken while I was driving alone along the coast road this morning, mountains of home behind me.  Risky I know, but the road was quiet so I chanced it!

Keep them coming!

Clive


kgb224 ( ) posted Mon, 10 December 2012 at 1:40 PM

Clive the mountains of that Region is still stuck in my mind.

One caanot get enough of them looking when one is there.

Amazing capture and upload.
