Felt like playing with reflections today.

I went out to keep practicing street photography but I didn't feel like shooting people (with my camera of course!). Then it started raining and started shooting some reflections on water, glass and stuff.

These are the ones I liked.

EDIT: Maybe they are better suited for the Black and White forum now that I think about it, but I wanted to take city/architecture photos using reflections. If the mods consider it better to move the thread, may it be so.

I love them all. I'm still trying to figure out the last image... I can make out HSBC :mrgreen:. What were you reflecting off of in the last image?

I adore the second one. Its a great shot. The reflection is great but what really catches my eye is the lower left hand corner. The person strolling... That alone gives me the feeling of a Eugene Atget image. It feels like you captured the past and the present in one shot. Nice!

Thanks! The guy Strolling was just luck, i saw him after snapping the picture.

The last 3 are turned upside down to get a "normal" view. The structure in the 3rd picture has a circular piece of glass on the top that gives light to the train station that's underground. It was raining some minutes ago and they are usually scratched because of kids climbing and playing on them. Those pictures where the reflections of such glasses.

You can see them here:
