Photographing Reflections

I find reflections fascinating! Once you start looking you will see them everywhere!  Reflections can provide a mirror image or something quite abstract.  It all depends on the condition of the surface you are photographing.    


Below are a few interesting examples

Here is a unusual portrait of a man staring into a pool of water. His hands are clasped together, just beneath the surface of the water, as if he is praying.


This is an image I made of a reflection, that grabbed my attention, on a New York City store window.  I saw this as a good representation of the city as it portrays the high fashion, the cultural entertainment (If you look closely you will see sheet music from the store window overlaying the reflection of the building across the street) and of course, the "hustle and bustle " of the city with it's never ending traffic!
