Reflections

The following picture is being recycled from my website. Shame on me, but for lack of shooting pictures this week, I didn't want to go too long without a new post.

I snapped the shot of the reflections in a puddle at Dupont Circle several years ago. I was taking a color photography class at Montgomery College and at the time, was using only Fuji Provia slide film [does this date me?]. My intent was to shoot pictures of the marble fountain in the center of the Circle, but I became more enthralled by the puddle and the images it was producing. To capture the picture, I remember squatting down to get the right angle, my knees in an adjacent puddle getting soaked, and patiently waiting for a passer-by wearing just the right colored clothes to make the image pop.
