Reflection photography?

AEJustin1 · Jul 28, 2011

Anyone else here really like taking reflection photos? I have a final project for my college class and we had to pick a theme of our choosing to shoot photos for. I chose reflections. I'm going to post up my favorite shot, feel free to critique and offer pointers for a beginning student!

This photo has a reflection, yes, but it doesn't have an emphasis on that reflection. Looking at this photo, I would assume that the subject was the gazebo, not the reflection. Just something to keep in mind!

sure thing, Thanks for the input! I was going for just general reflection and yes the basis was on the gazebo. :thumbup:
I'll share this one too haha.

Have you tried shooting reflections in windows? Some really cool effects can be gotten, especially when its an old wooden framed multipaned window.

Yes I got some pretty good window reflections from some of the buildings downtown.

I like it. Was it windy that day? The water looks like it was moving pretty good. That was my issue when I was out shooting, the wind was up too high until later in the day when I got that first shot up there.
