"Reflections" – Marilynne's Choice


Post a photo of a reflection or reflections. Reflections in water, on glass any surface counts.
Let's see how creative you can be! Color, B&W, HDR...anything goes!

DO NOT SHOOT OR POST IMAGES UNTIL WEDNESDAY April 19th.

This early announcement of the topic is to give a little think time, before the challenge begins. Photos must be taken and submitted between 00:00 UTC of the start date and 23:59 UTC of the end date.

If the forum EXIF viewer does not show for any reason, listing the camera and capture date/time below the photo is acceptable. Listing exposure info, lens & focal length is encouraged so others can learn.

The Rules

1. Any photo submitted for the Weekly Photo Challenge must be taken using a Nikon Camera! Any photo submitted for a weekly challenge must be taken during the dates specified in the challenge thread and taken by YOU!

2. If the EXIF does not show using a browser EXIF app, listing the camera and capture date/time below the photo is required. Listing exposure info, lens & focal length is encouraged so others can learn.


3. Photos must be posted in this thread to be considered. Links to photos will not be considered an entry (In other words, no Flikr, Photobucket, or similar links)

4. Only one photo entry per member for each week, unless otherwise noted.

5. All regularly active members of Nikonites are allowed to participate, including moderators and administrators.

Voting

During the submission & like periods, please click the Thanks/Like button to vote for your favorite images. You can vote for as many as you want! At the end of the week, you will have the opportunity to vote again for the top 3 photos for this challenge!


There will be no cash or prizes awarded for the Weekly Photo Challenges, unless specifically noted by the site administrator.

Any photo will be accepted for the challenge. Edited or straight out of the camera, it does not matter. You are left with complete freedom to do whatever genre of photography you wish to do, and your own interpretation of the challenge subject.



Please note - Rule 2 changed.

Buddy likes to hang out on this bathroom counter. I thought I might just turn him around facing the mirror, and get some good shots, but he wasn't having it. Tapping on the mirror with my finger, I was able to get him to face it, but not long enough for me to back away and take the picture.

So, I grabbed a nearby yardstick, and used that to tap on the mirror. Buddy found the yardstick more interesting than my hand, and was soon chasing it up the mirror. So, here I am, using one hand to tap the mirror with the yardstick, while awkwardly trying to take pictures with my camera in the other hand.

Posted, this time, as a .PNG instead of a .JPG, because the way this image was arranged, it was necessary to preserve the transparency thereof.

Hey Bob Blaylock! Buddy looks like a great cat, I like him!!!

He is a great cat. Apparently, he was abandoned by a former resident of my apartment complex, some time from 2015 to 2018, and lived as a semi stray from that time, until about a year ago, when he suddenly decided that he's my wife's and my cat. For nearly a year, I've described him as our “unofficial second cat”. Not quite a month ago, we made it official, getting him “chipped” and registered to us, and putting him on our lease.
