Down Under, We Have Upside-Down Trees
Photographs copyright: DAVID McMAHON Okay, just kidding. We don’t really have upside-down trees. But a couple of weeks ago I caught sight of this pale winter dusk and a bare plane tree, reflected in this car bonnet (or hood, depending on where you live). The photograph below is taken in exactly the same spot, in the Australian autumn a few months ago, while the tree still had about half its leaves. Interesting difference between the two shots, don’t you think?
i love these 'spot-the-difference' kind of snaps.
ReplyDeletehow did you manage to park the car exactly in the same place?

Shiny car, I thought it was a still pond.
ReplyDeleteHi RK,
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked the idea. We don;t always park our cars in the garage, so it is quite often parked just outside the roller door!

G'day Hammer,
ReplyDeletePond? It's actually a Ponda, er, sorry, I mean Honda!
Keep smiling

Great shots, how interesting to see the difference. I just love reflections
ReplyDeleteThanks Ali,
ReplyDeleteI thought the contrast between the two seasons worked really well.
As you'll see from some of my archived work, I do shoot a lot of reflections!
Keep smiling
David
These are great shots! :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's really true, one has to have the camera on hand at any time, isn't it? I love to capture reflections, they are for me such a perfect ... ahem ... reflection of life's fleeting moments.
Wooo, you almost had me there. That's so you, as if trying to take the first pic wasn't good enough, you have to go back and replicate it again in a different season! Amazing.
ReplyDeleteThose photos are fabulous!
ReplyDeleteWait.....it's not a pond?
Namaste.
Nice before and after. Cool effect.
ReplyDeleteI thought it was water, too.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots. And great patience to get the two to match up just right.
How creative! Love the changes in the two photographs, I was so captivated by the colours of the sky.
