Every week we select a new theme, and then go out and shoot that theme. This week the theme is "Reflection". Be as imaginative/creative as you like when interpreting the theme -- the sky's the limit!


Here are the rules:

1. Shots need to be taken between sunrise Monday and sunset the following Sunday. Because this activity is supposed to encourage us to get out and shoot, please don't post old shots from your archives. Snap shots and art are equally welcome -- just get out & shoot, and then share!

2. Post your shots at any time during the week.

3. Post a maximum of two shots if you're uploading them to POTN (i.e., attaching them). You can post more than two if you're linking to shots that are not hosted by POTN (i.e.,embedding them), but keep within POTN rules. Also keep within POTN rules about size. A copy of the size rules can be found here: IMAGE POSTING RULES (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=194511)

An index to previous weeks can be found here: POTN WORLDWIDE PHOTO DAY INDEX (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=170603)

That's it! Have fun!

Ok here is one I created during lunch just for this topic. It was done using a mirror and a drop of sweet water, I had to offer a drink to get the subject to participate :lol:

Nice one again John!

Dune is one of my husband's favorite movies..."For he is the Kwisatz Haderach" is a line that always cracks me up for some strange reason!

Nice Reflection of a watch there Spud... We can know the date and time without any EXIF !


Ok, I've always wanted to try this, and now I know how difficult it can be in an outdoor environment :confused: It is windy and the clouds are rolling by causing all kinds of havoc!

Here is a Refraction and Reflection of my backyard...
