Reflections

A few people seemed to think that I had put my tape measure on a mirror to photograph and so commented on the reflection, I hadn't actually done this, it was just bits of the tape measure sitting on top of each other but it did make me think about reflections so this morning I took a picture with the vase and fruit basket in front of the mirror and managed to also get a reflection of the window and sofa in too. I am sure it would be much more vibrant in colour but at the moment I am sticking to black and white as it is November and again I used a high ISO so lots of grain. I do love experimenting don't you?

  4. Yes, experimenting is fun; I have just started shooting outside of AUTO mode, so I feel like all I'm doing now is experimenting with what works and what doesn't!

  10. I have a black and white photo myself I've posted, very unusual for me. Yours reminds me of the look of the old TriX film; the grain only adds to the look. Nice!

  12. I am so relieved!!! I thought I was losing it when I read the comments about the reflections of the measuring tape, because I saw it as a coil of measuring tape stacked on itself!!! Whew!!! Thank you!!!

    Love the concept of doing B&W all month, and I love your shot today!!!
