Far and away the most popular image on my Flickr site.

Taken in May 2018 outside the Jacksonville (Florida) Ikea. A bright, cloudless sky made the perfect backdrop for the stark blue and yellow boxes that make up the exterior of the store. Recorded with my always with me Samsung Galaxy S8+.

Reflecting on reflections – a favorite subject.

Bold reflection of the Fernandina Beach Post Office. Taken with a Fujifilm X-A10 with Canon FD 24mm f2.8 lens.

I think I enjoy the challenge and the opportunities presented by reflections when composing difficult shots. Should both subjects be in focus or only the primary subject? I think of photographing reflections as creating double exposures and I also view reflections as a way of seeing something new in an otherwise ordinary image.
