Weekly Challenge #534 Reflections on water
Posted By: Bruce Clark, 05-12-2021, 09:33 PM

The theme for Challenge #534 is "Water Reflections". The objective for this challenge is to post any images where there is a reflection from water. Lake, sea, river or puddle all qualify.
The challenge closes at midnight Eastern Standard Time on Thursday 20th of May Aussie time

The fine print:
Every week, a new theme is picked and judged by the winner of the previous week.

1. Post ONE photo.
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread and explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme (especially if it's not obvious).
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and choose one of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus an additional day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax or Ricoh camera can be used.
8. Pictures can be from any time frame, not just within the week of the current theme.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge for the next challenge, they will PM the #2 winner for that person to be the judge.

A few recent examples from me:

You can enter last week's shot. There is no rule against it.

So long as there is a reflection on water it's ok with me.

Thanks CedrusMarco.
Sunrises are often spectacular down there.

Because I like the idea of showing recognisable landmarks indirectly (through their surroundings, or in this case the reflection).

The reflection of the golden light and of the birds on the smooth wet sand made me happy that I got up early the morning I took this one, my unexpected personal favorite of that day.

One of the most colourful canal walks I'd had on a clear early Spring night. The still air helped the reflection image of the trees, and the old Tamron Apadtall 28mm 02B can be thanked for the colours.

UGH! I had to narrow this down from 9 pictures! I love reflections in water spots so much! BUT! I give you, whatever this is

The sunrise is behind me and obstructed by another big building, which created some cool fx for letting you know it's some for of sun up or down situation! Vibrant colors, clear skies, cool architecture
