This week’s WordPress photo challenge is guest hosted by Jared Bramblett.
Reflections. This challenge is about using reflections in the composition of a shot. Reflections are all around us, whether they’re in a window, a puddle, a mirror, or another surface. They can dramatically affect the feeling and mood of a shot by creating a surreal sense of duality. Think of a city reflecting in a river, a crowd of people reflecting in the glass pane of a building, or a landscape altered by the placement of a simple glass mirror.
I challenge you to head out and create an image that uses reflections to force the viewer to question and interpret the reality of the shot.
Because of this last sentence, I simply had to choose this one:

You can see the real wind turbine here.

Dit pas heel goed by die tema
Grappig hoe sommige foto’s voor een thema gemaakt lijken te zijn hè, terwijl je het niet van te voren weet.

Great take !
I challenge you to head out and create an image that uses reflections to force the viewer to question and interpret the reality of the shot. < I think the challenge was successfully answered then
I like that you did not include the “real” wind turbine, only its reflection. Works for me!
And I just saw you did the same. A beautiful photo you entered!

How pretty
Thanks, sweetie
That is certainly a ‘WOW’ shot, Marion.
Perfect conditions for this shot: the water was like a mirror, AD

So cool
Nice eh? Even the lens was fooled that day
Not sure how you did this… but it certainly makes the mind work…
How I did this? Bulldogsturf, I just took the shot. It is the REFLECTION of the wind turbine in the water you see, not the actual turbine. The only thing real in the photo is the water and the grass. And nothing is edited, the photo is completely natural!
Then I’m impressed beyond words… that clarity is magnificent… I thought you had manipulated that photo… wow beautiful…
Thanks, big smile on my face. Have a wonderful and reflective weekend!
I like your interpretation. That’s great
Thanks, NN
Great, fun shot!
So nice of you to comment, Jennifer.
Wonderful shot, Marion.
Thanks, Gracie
Upside down ! Great !
No Max, the photo is not upside down. The water was like a mirror that day and I focused my camera on the refection of the wind turbine!
Yes…at first it appears that the photo is just upside down…but upon closer inspection you can see that the wind thingie is reflected on a pond or other water source, I can see the bank of it. Great shot Marion.
Have a wonderful weekend.
Much love,
Jules
YES Jules, you have seen this right! Nothing edited in this photo, it is the original picture of a reflection of the turbine in the water.
You too, sweetie.
Love,
Mar
Certainly is interesting!
It is amazing the way a camera lens can focus on an image, leaving the ‘real’ surroundings vague.
