Reflections but not a different perspective :)

I got out and about today in the attempt to shoot for the challenge, and I haven't got a shot that I'm happy to submit. But I took this one with the 50mm 1.4 at F16, 1/50sec spot metering, ISO 200 and auto WB +1. Constructive criticism as always very welcome.

Hmmmm - a puddle Geoff :roll:

Now if you had the reflection of a UFO in the water then you would have a challenge photo.

Well yeah, I said it wasn't challenge worthy but I liked the fact that it captured a number of items in a small space, i.e sky, road, leaves, car bits, water, a bit obscure yes, a UFO...in my dreams :)

I think it's an interesting starting point; I like the contrast between the colour of the leaves and the reflection of the sky in the water. It would probably come down to frame it tightly and nicely, good luck!

Geoff,
I sort of like that kind of shot, they make me think of all sort of things.
Cheers,
Gerard

like link i think this is an intersting starting point. if there had been a reflection of a poignant moment, eg a person carrying some flowers hanging down or two people walking away from one another, i think the fallen leaves would have made a nice frame. the theme would be loss or sadness.
