Again a nearby composition from the PWC building (or here). This is definitely my most photographed construction; I just do not seem to get tired of it. As in other versions, the subject is the space in between the outer glass panels of the building and the actual window panes. However, this time, there are no strong shadows, but rather a space ablaze with light and only fuzzy patches of shadow. On the right are the vertical blinds, inside the building, and their reflection is on the left. I am still undecided whether or not the hint of a houseplant helps or harms the composition. At the moment, I like this view and tend to the former evaluation, but this may change. Do you have an opinion? 

In this nearby composition of the PWC building (or here), I like the repeating reflections on the glass panes and the window behind, which make up the center of the photograph. In addition, I was of course drawn to this subject because of the duplicated, symmetric composition, a characteristic of many examples in the reflections gallery. I visit this building regularly on my photo walks, but did not discover a new composition in a while. However, recently I have found several new angles and points of view; I particularly like the one above. Henrik Fessler has just used the term "reflection photography" for such subjects, which I quite like.

Petioles and bud - old and future leaves next to each other.

The other day, I have lamented that simply beautiful landscapes bore me at the moment. In contrast, what I currently enjoy is discovering beauty in overlooked and unnoticed details. The compositions on display here combine this quest with my adoration of fall colors and fondness of regular, geometric patterns.
Nearby where we live, several rows of maple trees turn beautifully red, orange and yellow every autumn.  There is obvious beauty in these trees and in each leaf, but this year I was looking for more hidden subjects. It must have been strange observing me staring lengthily at trees and leaves from an extremely close distance. I was trying to focus (literally) on colorful leaf petioles that provided regular, contrasty patterns. The flashy fall leaves only served as back- and foreground, forming blurry blotches of color. It has become a small, surprisingly homogenous series, I think. I hope you enjoy!
