Reflections

One thing I learned when writing fiction is that what the writer does is merely to help the reader imagine the tale. You give the reader only enough clues to enable him or her to create images and feelings inside himself. I am beginning to think that photography is like that as well - the image should suggest a greater reality that the viewer creates in his mind using the clues you give him. It's one of the reasons that reflections are a popular photographic subject. Here on the cap of this tiny mushroom you can see reflected the giant maple trees that loomed overhead. The tiny reflection lets you create that towering forest in your mind.

Isn't this a nice effect? I bought the mirror in fact, I see in it's depths a whole series of photos.... - Fern

Reflections

On another photo mission this week, Benjamin Madison and I revisited Mckenzie Creek to the north of Upper Thetis Lake. It is truly a magnificent spot, well worth the extra bit of bushwacking to get there. I took some okay pictures which show the area's beauty but it's this one, with it's almost abstract or painterly quality that really was the winner for me. Photographing water is a challenge, especially when balancing on a mossy rock mid-stream! -Fern

Nothing I can say tops the headline. The only clue I'll divulge is that I LOVE reflections....
