For the first time in a little while I was just shooting for the sake of shooting, and more specifically because I saw an interesting opportunity.
The other day as I was leaving work the puddle that always seems to collect behind the museum after any rainfall appeared to be more particularly engaging than usual, and I had just happened to have my camera on me at the time. Although I didn’t have this product in mind immediately when I was shooting, I just thought the reflections were interesting, but nevertheless I’m happy with where it went. All of the attached photos are reflections from the puddle that have been inverted as to appear as if they were captured upright, which tends to give the photos an interesting aesthetic quality that straight captures don’t have: as a result of imperfections, film and bubbles, on the water the images appear to have a more scattered ethereal quality that almost has a wet-plate-like appearance due to its irregularities.
