Work Diary - Reflection

In our reflection session, it was quite a dark gloomy day so there were the occasional puddle in which I could capture some reflection, there are also quite a few of mirrored surfaces around the college and Harlow Town Centre. Although there were a few reflective surfaces there were not many which actually made finding good reflective photographs quite hard. 

This image is showing the reflection of a sign post in the pond. It is not a clear reflection as the water is not clear but it still creates a reflection. I like this photograph because there is something simple about it but it still shows the reflection.












I like this photograph as it shows the sweet machine and the reflection of that and the others next to it in the window behind it. This also is not a very defined reflection but it still shows this formal element. 








If I was to redo the reflection session, I would try to do it on a sunnier day so that I have the light from the sun to help create more reflection images. I feel that this would really improve certain reflection photographs.

I think that these 6 images show reflection well as they all capture different types of reflection in different surfaces i.e watered surfaces, mirrors, or mirrored surfaces. The majority of reflection images are ones in which the object has been reflected in water.

This image shows the reflection of two people on a beach, from a pair of sunglasses taken at an angle. This images shows that there is much more to the scene that what is being captured.

This image of the Eiffel Tower shows reflection as it is mirrored into the water in front of the tower. It also shows more of the Eiffel Tower that the still object. I like this images because the brightness of the tower against its background is reflected also in the waters surface.

This image of a lakes landscape shows reflection as it captures the many bright colours of the sky and mirrors them perfectly in the waters surface.

This image captures reflection of the woman doing yoga on the waters edge. As well as it capturing the reflection of the woman it captures the reflection of the different colours in the sky.
