P52-3-23 Light: Reflections
Posted By: Rense, 01-01-2011, 08:05 AM

First of all: Happy New Year to you all!!! And sorry for the delay in posting this challenge!

In week 23 of P52-3, we'll still be working around the theme Light. This
weeks concept is Reflections, something we all try to capture every now
and then, I guess....

Just some backgrounds and some ideas:
50 Stunning Examples
More examples!
Some technique
Water drop reflection

Time Frame: pictures for week 23 are to be taken and posted between
20110101 and 20110109, so from New Years Day, 2011 - January 9th, 2011.

Rules:
1. Anyone and everyone who is interested in eligible. The goal continues to be
have fun and share comments, concepts, insights, and techniques with fellow
Pentaxians.
2. Each week will feature a Theme and Sub-concept for you to explore.
3. Post your single picture in Project 52-3 thread for the week. Explain what
motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly
theme.
4. Some post-processing is OK (adjusting white balance, exposure, color
saturation), but let's try to stay away from heavily PP'ed images here. Try to
keep the creativity to photographic techniques and the captures themselves.
5. Since this project is about technique, and not camera, shots taken by nonPentax
cameras are allowed. Cameras can be SLRs, DSLRs, Point & Shoot and Medium Format.
6. There is one “Theme Concept” labeled “black and white,” but feel free to post
black and white, sepia, monotone, etc., for any of the other themes.
7. The picture you post should be taken during the week in which the theme is
active to be eligible for judging.
8. Any picture taken from 20100731 to listed closing date is acceptable for the two
“Seasonal” competitions – Projects 52-3-51 & 52.

Additional Information, including the scheme with subjects: https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/mini-challenges-games-photo-stories/10506...-year-3-a.html.

Have fun shooting!

And of course, once again I took some shots that would work just last night, wet street scenes just before midnight, and therefore NOT within the required timeline...

You're doing this to me on purpose aren't you...I just know it...

I guess I'll get this started. I may not get another chance to get a reflection this week. This is along the edge of a lake, there has been some thawing and refreezing, so the ice is uneven.

Windows shaping the clouds

Trying to find my Single in January shot for the day, I caught these clouds reflected in the windows of the office building I work in. Would have liked a slightly wider lens but had to be content with the wide end of my DA 55-300.
