This week’s WordPress Photo Challenge is: Reflection, that is, literally, reflection — a reflected image on a mirror, water, or any shimmering surface. Here’s the WordPress write-up of the theme and their sample photo (hope the blog did it justice with the photo above, shot by Myra Lambino in Tondol Beach.)
From WordPress: “This week’s photo challenge is guest hosted by Jared Bramblett. xxx
“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 — as in the shot I’ve chosen above — a landscape altered by the placement of a simple glass mirror.
“The image I’ve selected for this challenge was shot on a dock at a local park. I utilized a simple 12″x12″ mirror to enhance the depth created by the dock’s railings. The limiting size and placement of the mirror creates incomplete symmetry and forces my mind to try and complete and see more of the symmetry than is actually there.
“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.”
