Well, I finally made it through ten days of posting reflection images, woot! Granted they were not concurrent days but I still feel a certain sense of accomplishment. Hopefully I can check this challenge off my todo list - for now at least. It was very fun and inspirational to be focused in creating reflection images. I’m glad the suggestion was made to try it out.

For my last image I made an artificial Kaleidoscope type pattern using software. This is my first attempt at trying something like this. The pattern is not completely symmetrical and next time I might try adjusting the mirror placements in different angles to see what other types of patterns form.

I may try to do an animation with this type of setup, if I get the time and inclination.

To create the image I started out with a more recent picture of my orchid reflecting off a mirror. The plant has been opening up more and more flowers – there are six flowers opened now.

Of course I had to add ‘Metal Kitty’ into the mix since I’ve been featuring that several times in previous posts.

The reflection challenge has started me thinking about other types of creative things I can do. It was a lot of fun for me to try different things. I hope you all enjoyed the pictures.

Thanks for reading! I took the photo with my Panasonic Lumix FZ-35. Software used: Softimage XSI, and GIMP.
