b&w reflections: No. 2: the tastiest water by quietpurplehaze

b&w reflections: No. 2: the tastiest water

Normally I discourage Jinks from drinking puddles, which all dogs seem to like, but this time the need for a photo was stronger.

Some unrelated morning thoughts/observations: a just beautiful piece of Vivaldi on Classic FM this morning; our bedroom walls are currently randomly 'decorated' with 12 squares of different paint shades as we try to decide what colour to re-decorate them; it's grey outside again anyway.

I wonder if everybody has the same difficulty with home decorating?!

I've just realised that Jinks' reflected self is still on the lead although I cloned out the actual lead. Jinks off-lead in an outside space does not bear thinking about!

Double Jinks what could be better. Pale lilac is quite restful for the bedroom.

Thanks for the suggestion - we do have quite a few purple shades in the room (how could you guess?) so are really looking for a neutral 'backdrop'.

Love how Jinx is the foreground and his reflection is perfect. The background is vast!

Nice reflection cute shot

Nice composition nd reflection. And hey, at least he's only drinking it, not rolling over in it.

@laroque

Tim, you know of course, what he really likes rolling over in!!

Great monochrome tones, reflected light and composition Hazel:)

This is great - I wouldn't have noticed the reflection of the lead if you hadn't pointed it out. good luck with the redecorating. Our walls are all a pale cream colour, which is most out of fashion, as everyone seems to be having tea or some sort of coffee colour…...

@dide

Cream is good I think - accommodates everything.

Love your PoV and B&W - great pic! I didn't notice the lead reflection either.

We've got a huge stack of paint cards that we're using to try to decide on paint for our kitchen. I think we've got it down to about 20 options...

Well captured Jinks and his great reflection were you on your knees again. I wouldn't have noticed the lead either. Good luck choosing your colour I hate having to make a final decision sometimes.

The original shot was taken in 2014 and it's sadly evident to me that now getting on my knees is harder than it was then.................

LOL. Hazel....here goes my imagination. Look at Jinks drinking from that puddle....it looks like the drinking has made him a giant dog....LOL... Great shot.

Lovely reflections and I wouldn't have noticed lead either. We have decorating!😞
June 14th, 2016  
Oh I love this shot Hazel. A big fav.
Had to smile at the random coloured squares on your bedroom wall. We did the same. Thank God for sample pots.
I just love Vivaldi too and Nigel Kennedy playing Winter by Vivaldi is magnificent.

June 15th, 2016  
Oh No! Such wilful neglect of a poor creature that knows no better! Good shot, though!
June 15th, 2016  
From you latest pic.`s I think I go for a fav. for this one. It has a lot to be a great pic.
June 17th, 2016  
Lovely picture, so good in b&w. I also like the low pov you've taken. I wouldn't have noticed the lead either if you hadn't mentioned it.
