Court House

We have had quite a bit of rain lately and I wanted to try a reflection shot. There were several opportunities downtown. For another shot in this area see http://365project.org/grammyn/everything-else/2012-01-21

Nice shot. I love the reflection in the rain puddle.

[Marilyn Wigen]

Very nice! I love the large tree in front of the courthouse and the way that in the reflection you see the parts of the tree and the courthouse that are cut off in their "real-life" version.

Nice reflection . . again. You are really winging along on manual! More brave than I am. One of these days . . . :)

@deburahiru This is what I was going for when I got the flag in the other shot as well. Thanks, Deb.

[katy]

@marilyn Thank you ma'am. I wondered if anyone would catch that. I should have know you would because you have that great attention to detail.

[katy]

@karenann Thanks, KarenAnn. I can't take full credit because my viewfinder shows me what the photo will look like at that setting. It helps me learn though because I would never remember otherwise from the camera back to the computer screen what setting I used!

I love that you got the clock part of the tower in the puddle! Very cool! We have had tons of rain lately! That is a good thing! But not for photographing much of anything.

[katy]

@espyetta Thanks,MaryBeth. I appreciate you taking the time in your very busy schedule! The rain IS good for getting reflection shots!

[MaryBeth Dailey]

@grammyn I know! I have been wanting to find a good reflection pic, but you have to wait until it is not actually raining! Or dark. Makes it hard!

very nice reflection shot! see rain is good for somethings

[katy]

@espyetta You are right on both counts! ;~}

[katy]

@ladybug71012 Thanks, Ladybug. I have been waiting for the the right combination of conditions for this shot.

[Phil]

You finally foung your puddle! LOL

[katy]

@after12 yup!

[bruni]

where yu waiting for the rain and looked for a puddle in front of the court house? well it turned out just great.

[katy]

@bruni Actually I thought it might make a great shot if there was a puddle there but had to wait for rain to see if I could get a shot. It worked out perfectly for me.

[Debbie Orlando]

This is great, Katy!

[Debbi M]

Nicely done. Amazing that the reflection is across the street.

[katy]

Thanks, Debbie. I appreciate it so much.

[katy]

@debbim Thanks,Debbie. I was very happy to see the puddle where it was!

[Darlene]

Very nice shot and you got the reflection in the puddle of water. Wow!!

[Peter de Graaff]

An interesting reflection and building

[katy]

@darsphotos That was the goal, Darlene. I walked up and down that street to find just the right angle and puddle. I think I found it. ;~}

[katy]

@peterdegraaff Thanks, Peter. I was hoping for a better angle or a bigger puddle but am happy with what I had to work with.

[adobe waters]

katy this is wonderful - love your framing - reflection!

[katy]

@adobewaters Thanks, Adobe . I value your opinion very much.

[Ruth Moucharafieh]

Great shot Katy.....like a jigsaw with 2 parts to make the whole. Very clever.

[katy]

@ruthmouch I would like to say I planned it like that but it was a happy accident! Thank you for your nice words!

[Kathy Burzynski]

Katy I really love this reflection shot!

[Brenda]
