reflection of peace by summerfield

reflection of peace

itiofd, i've done this before, but this week at 52 frames the challenge is 'reflection'. can't do any landscape reflection and even the creek near where i live is so ho-hum and bleh it's not photo-worthy. so i decided to go for what i know how to do well. i should have positioned it better as i think the angle is a bit off, or mayhap it's just my ocd.

i was looking around the building grounds for any signs of daffodils as today is st. david's day for the welsh people, but there was none to be found. i play pass the pigs with five of the ladies here and today they had welsh cakes to honour the occasion.
Any time I see reflections in sunglasses it reminds me of the classic movie Cool Hand Luke.

Love the multiple reflections. I am so determined to make these welsh cakes that I keep hearing about.

@shutterbug49 - ask @mcsiegle for the recipe, i remember it has lard and butter and all those things that make my arteries quiver! 😂

Fabulous shot and reflections.

Great shot!

But it works so fine for the 'frame' 5+2 theme. You are framed there in the lens... and that is a frame in itself, right? Are these called spectacle frames? Or do they have another name?

Great reflections captured.

FAV Nothing wrong with the angle at all it’s a fantastic photo! You did a fabulous job of positioning yourself perfectly and there are actually two reflections of you in this one. I agree with @monikozi it is perfect for the 5+2 as well.

@monikozi - argh! i didn't realize that. i could've saved me the trouble of taking a self portrait then processing it in photoshop which i really loathe doing these days. sometimes i can be daft! argh!

A good take on the this challenge.

@shutterbug49 This is the recipe I used. Last year I added nutmeg like one of the commenters mentioned but didn't see that little note this year until after I made them. @mcsiegle adds mace to hers. https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/11020/welsh-cakes/

With all this talk about Welsh cakes the Welsh blood me is now stirring up the desire to try making some! Cool reflection shot!

@olivetreeann - 🤣the welsh blood in me wants to go to wales. i found an irish restaurant that serves welsh cakes for afternoon tea. yes, engish afternoon tea in an irish restaurant serving welsh cakes. and mayhap they put some scotch whisky in the tea! in any case, the piggies gang is plotting a meet up and you because you have english, welsh, scotch and irish blood, will need to come.
