I'm not a photographer. Don't argue with me on that one. I take photos. That is all.
However, the other day I came across something that was interesting and took a photo.
So here's the photo and then I'll tell you what my problem is.
I was standing on a little footbridge and looked into a little pond on the creek and I saw crystal clear reflection , You can see ice on the edge of the pond.
Then I looked around for some perspective. Normally you would open things up and show the trees on the bank and the reflections together.
Well that wouldn't work. I was on a foot bridge . The image was quite far down . the tree was on a high bank. Even if I did take the bridge railing off I couldn't get the whole image.
So I'll have to be content with a pretty image and complete lack of perspective.
I went to the other side of the bridge and there was the typical reflection photo. So you see the trees and reflection in the same photo.
This came out of my walk on Nov. 19.
How did that big tree get mirrored into a small pond and creek? Cool. Linda in Kansas
ReplyDeleteI was looking straight down into the water The reflection "looks" up the tree. The reflection is a funny shape.
DeleteI love reflections and it must have been cold. I see snow along the bank too.
ReplyDeleteNot cold at all. It's hard for you to imagine that . However, I'm not wearing shorts or sandals either.
DeleteSome things work, some don't. That's life!
ReplyDeleteThis one was half good.
DeleteLove the trees and the reflection. Take care, have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteThe trees reflection was in a very narrow channel.
DeleteGood photo. I get a bit dizzy trying to flip the image to see how the reflections are. lol
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
Yes, flipping the image didn't help!
DeleteWe are stuck with the conditions. Mostly we just do the best that we can in the moment.
ReplyDeleteYour right about taking what we can get. I could soon see I couldn't improve on this one.
DeleteA lovely walk and adventure!
ReplyDeleteI like the shots you took!
ReplyDeleteOne sweet thing I noticed, your finger in the corner of the last two photos brought back such a fun memory for me. My Mom quite often got her finger in the picture when she took photos or family movies back in the day. We get a chuckle whenever we watch those old movies and see her finger!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you explained that first picture. I'm not sure I could have figured out what I was seeing without one.
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's really tough to get good perspective. I hear you on that! I do like the reflections!
ReplyDeleteInteresting...I often take photo that I wonder...will people get what I was trying to capture in a photo.
ReplyDeleteCool photos, I like them.
ReplyDeleteThat first one is quite arty.
ReplyDeleteNo snow here yet but a covering forecast up here in the North (but not your North). Not posting at the moment but still reading.
ReplyDeleteIf it is not a wedding or some ceremony, have fun with your camera!
ReplyDeleteInteresting photos Red, the reflections are very clear. I am a point and shoot photographer most of the time.
ReplyDeleteAmazing reflection
ReplyDeleteI like it.
ReplyDeleteawe !
ReplyDeleteit is stunning and intriguing image the first one !
at first one can indulge in image as it's of the tree and sky behind it but later the bank of stream catches the eye :)brilliant
