reflections on the hood of a porsche


Framing photographs that are reflective really forces me to be creative. I don't want the reflection to primarily be me. It takes a little ingenuity and geometry to hide myself and make something more aesthetic. Case in point, my head was 3 inches from the hood of this Carerra in order to catch the blue skies and trees on Pennsylvania Avenue in the black painted mirror.

Well, the gymnastics seem to have paid off. Nothing like that -hard to get- shot to keep a photographer fit!

...and knowing you've got to get the shot before the car owner returns and wonders if you're actually on his car.
