A Collection of Reflections
“Art is not just about what’s great or expensive or scandalous or famous. It’s a mirror we hold up that looks different to everyone who sees it, and whose beauty lies as much in us, and our capacity to dream . . . “
—Michael Kimmelman

“Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in that mirror which waits always before or behind.”
—Catherine Drinker Bowen
As both artist and a writer, the reflections of mirrors and the act of mirroring attract me. Reflections, especially, as refractions of light, image and whereabouts fascinate me. Today’s reflections are crystal-clear mirror images, be they in water or in windows.
Come back again tomorrow, for a gallery of distortions, all caused by reflections, and compare the experience of hazy reflections with clear ones. ♣

I am especially taken with the vibrant colors in these reflection photos. They are beautiful, but not dominating.
The reflections of autumn’s magic in the water are marvelous.
Love the Lovely Lilies – stunning color contrast!
Loved the entire gallery, Jann.
I loved the water ripples which had a soft touch differentiating the real from the mirror images. The reflections on the skyscrapers are also so clear. But the blocks are breaking the reflecting images into many parts.
Lovely collection, Jann
Glad to hear from you. Thank you.
this is beautiful reflection – I requested from my musical group band to play a melody for you – We need to know this location in your blog!
How kind! Thank you very much. The location of the featured image is in Austin, Texas, at our amazing botanical garden. Is that the one you mean?
