Weekly Photo Challenge; Reflections (2)

Swan & Cygnet, Black Pond Esher Common

Yesterday we went for a walk in Esher woods.  The frost on the ground was showing no sign of melting, and our breath condensed as it hit the cold air, but the light was lovely so I kept this weeks Challenge in mind when we were walking and was looking out for interesting reflections.

Here are a few of my favourites

  1. Ah yes Black Pond – haven’t been there since my old dog died. Wonderful little area of solitude.
    I,too loved taking pictures there and the winter weather always produces some beautiful and stark views.
    Good stuff.
    I am a photographer (by trade) and just setting out on the blogging path as a means of updating my web site so was interested to see your contribution.
    I’ll drop in again to see how you’re doing.

      Thank you 🙂 I’m a complete amateur as I’m sure is blatantly obvious, so your comments are very welcome! I’m quite new to blogging too, but getting my head round it so if you’re stuck on anything, please ask, although if you can get your head round digital photo-editing software, then you can manage anything!!

      Aww, thank you 🙂

      Not sure what it is about upside-down-ness, I just like seeing what the pictures look like upside down, especially when they are reflections. Maybe it’s my dyslexia, I like to look at things laterally

      It’s amazing how flipping them changes what we see about the pictures and how we interpret them, it’s like when we see pictures of people with upside-down faces with their smiles inverted… Our eye doesn’t think there is anything wrong!
