Balboa Island Museum (Weekend Reflections # 557)

Newport Beach, California

A rare local reflection after a rare rain storm.  :-)  Taken January 2020

If I would have lain flat on the ground or if my knees and back were younger, I probably could have captured more of this building reflected in a puddle between parked cars. But I was able to get the top of the building with the signage.

Happy reflecting!

It was a perfect puddle for your purposes. No sense in getting down and dirty.

Puddles can give great reflections, and I see you have found one, James

Over the years I have been inspired here, and last year I took these photos, partially influenced by your party. I don't contribute often because usually I try to eliminate reflections, but I like checking out this linky

Interestingly in relation to your comment about maximising the capture, I got a shot of a light reflected in a puddle yesterday but I couldn't get theimage I was seeing to be replicated in the camera - it was weird, and as it was raining, I couldn't be bothered to work it out. I thought it I was holding the camera at my eyes, it should be the same view?? Will work on it...

You already could capture a lot of things in such a small puddle!
Avoir un corps récalcitrant oblige à plus d'imagination! :)

Nice. I once had a viewfinder that flipped up so I could see my image from different angles. It was great for shots like this.
