Being Reflective by myautofocuslife

Being Reflective

Lao Tzu: "One can not reflect in streaming water. Only those who know internal peace can give it to others."

Because spoon shots are just too much fun to do with different papers. 8)
Fun pic! I like the sharp focus on the edge of the spoon.

What a great shot, Livia. I pulled spoons out to see how you angle your spoons but not too sure. Will play with this concept if I can find some paper in our house to do so. You have got a few of us interested. Nice job. Very cool concept.
