Reality and Reflection
« on: March 01, 2021, 11:39:49 am »

"How well photography reflects reality" comes to mind, mostly due to a stream-of-consciousness associations. My mind works in mysterious ways  :)

While I was shooting bridges last evening, I took these two images 2 minutes apart, with no intention to match. The realization that they do came later.

I miss the ripples on the reflected signature.
A proof that the original was not written in the sky. Probably added later.

I sympathize.

Both shots are full frame, however.

Great pairing.

But I agree that you have to work on making a wiggly signature for the lower image.

I would have completely faked it and only acknowledged it under duress ;)
Very cool.

I liked it at first sight. You guys spoiled it for me. tsk, tsk. Now I notice where the lines meet in the water, they do not align. Go to PS and see if you can "stretch" image to make them align better; if you are interested, that is.

Well in my case I believed that Slobodan added a touch of humor with his "reflected" signture.
I added mine with the comment about the ripples. The reflection itself doesn't match either :-)

It was well meant. Sorry  :-[
