Homework

Rita suggested I try B&W with these monstrosities, and I finally did. It was very interesting because I kept looking for different things when looking at the screen showing only B&W, though I can't quite describe what I was looking for or looking at. Looking at the series now, I find these B&W photos so silent and peaceful. Thanks for the suggestion, Rita.

Nathalie recommended I try the reflections on this one. The water was seriously murky and full of plants, and this day was hotter and clearer, but I did go back around the same time of the day. The birds were all over creating ripples, and there's even a water fountain right behind the piece (from this angle) creating more ripples. This one, I think I'll go back on a clear winter day and try again. Thanks for the suggestion, Nathalie.

However, later that day, I continued to look for reflections. This one, I like, though it looks better smaller!

Oh I love these reflections! The bottom pic is especially peaceful--that isn't Ben in the photo, is it?
