Description
Another shop window in Port Townsend, Washington.
The double-reflected buildings in the near window are the 1889 James and Hastings building on the left, and the 1889 Capt. H. L. Tibbals building on the right.
Port Townsend boomed at the turn of the last century, and the downtown area has kept its original buildings. No longer a busy port, the town now serves as a seaside lunch-and-shopping attraction.

What a great shot Tara, I can just imagine sitting here and taking in the world, those older buildings opposite are marvelous.
Tara, show us some of the building in the reflection straight on.
I just had to zoom in for the Women's fashion shop - but then I discovered the real interest, which is that bench right outside, in front of it and it is, believe it or not - the same as we have here - the world is getting smaller ;) where was I? ah, yes - another nice place to reflect in several ways! those balloons also seem to lift the whole pic - unless you cut them loose ... BB
But the question is?????? Did you have any money left? Nice shot!
Nice info and excellent compositional image.
Very cool shot Tara
Wonderful!! Really like the reflections. :)

I love places like this.... Reminds me a bit of Eureka Springs, Ar. Wonderful shot, Tara!
I picked this as my 2d image for now, because it's another reflection shot from you. I realized, in going through my reflection shots, lately (the ones in my gallery are all with the Nikon, btw, which is one reason they're simpler---ie, the camera didn't do too well with multiple layers), that while I love to view shots like these, I rarely 'shoot' shots like these. Besides the limits of the old Nikon, I find the many-leveled layers of your reflection shots intimidating to capture, because we were asked to draw reflections years back, and it was such a challenge (ie, with one pen & one hue) that I yearned for more simplicity. But when someone else captures it, and as well as you do, it's a whole other matter. You've become famous for these shots. In many of them, the 'pane of glass' becomes the meeting ground for several worlds: And not just between 'real' and 'reflected', but between worlds, period. They meet and speak and vie and contrast and harmonize, etc, all on that surface. We have to look twice to remember this is part of a larger street---whose 'end" is mostly architecture & not reflections. But the foreground is where all the reflection is playing out: in the contrasts of panes, contrasting angles, contrasting reflections, and the way the city and objects behind the glass mingle. Your lights & darks tone it down, so the dialogue is introspective. (Meaning, it could be blaring instead. In my reflection shots, I go for more of a sheer glass 'wall' reflecting the outside with very blatant tones. Again, I shy away from the greater complexities because of my experience drawing these things, and because of my first camera, which tended to make a mess of them anyway. I just got lazy. Who needed to contend with all this, I thought. Easier to come here and let you do it, lol. Your inner & outer worlds mingle beautifully, as do the ghost images created by multiple angles, etc. Also, the burst of light in the upper right (along the tops of the buildings) gives a presence 'from above'. Beautiful reflection work, once more, with several worlds mingling in a big cocktail party of forms. No one does these like you do.
