Water & Reflection

I didn’t get to go out to take the shot I envisioned for today’s Photo 101 assignment: “Water & Orientation.” I got some beautiful shots of reflections in murky rainwater, bubbles, water stills, the works, but they weren’t quite what I wanted. Then I opened up PicMonkey and there was a tutorial on digital double exposures. So my submission for “Water & Orientation” is actually two pictures in one (hopefully different orientations). Both are reflections. One is an image reflected in a mirror and the other is a picture of a flower floating in rainwater, reflecting the sun, sky and trees. The positioning of the flower in the double exposure is pure serendipity and elevates the work to art.
