Cheers,

I was wondering about the angle! Thanks for posting the last one!

I'm liking #1 (I think there's one too many bodies in the image tho')

I have to agree with torags. The first image really emphasizes the reflection but would be so much better if the other two people were out of the frame. The second shot would be hard to make out what was going on if you did not tell us it was a reflection shot. Looks like perhaps something in the foreground that is out of the focus plane.

Still, kudos! Very creative and worth repeating this process to get more images from this perspective.

Personally I like it with the three people! It makes the image more Escheresque!

Well, I wasn't shooting as low as he was .

Yes, you're quite right--a little cropping and you would never know it was reflected. I think the clarity was what appealed to me most in that one.

Thanks, rags. You may be right. Here are a couple of alternatives:

4


5


I also tried just the one person in the center, but didn't care for it as much.

Earache

#5 clap

black mamba

I tell you, Richard, I'm not sure what impresses me more....the compelling interest stirred-up in shot #1, or your creativity in pulling the shot off. Either way, it's a winner.

Stay safe,

Tom
