A Photo a Week Challenge: Reflective Surfaces
This is a fun topic for this week’s challenge from Nancy Merrill. Fun … and sometimes challenging. Reflective surfaces can be easy or difficult, depending on the light. Of course in photography, it’s all about the light all the time, is it not?

I like! But where are the shiny, night city pictures? Those are my favorite shiny ones! 🙂

You know, I thought of them, but decided to do something else. I have a lot of shiny pictures, especially night pictures which are my favorite pictures to shoot. I have some carousel pictures that make me happy just looking at them.

Thanks for making it fun! The water in the canal has no current, so it’s usually pretty glassy.

Love them, especially the first one

The water in the canal is always shiny because it has no current. So it is like a mirror 🙂

I love the first one. So clear and sharp ! The last one is very unique.

The first one is the Canal the runs next to the river. It’s very reflective since it has no current. The last one was a grab with a point-and-shoot camera out the car window one afternoon. I was lucky 🙂

Is that a motor cycle in the last photo? All great photos, Marilyn.

Yes, it’s a motorcycle. It was a car and bike show at our one and only car dealer in the area … and it had tied up traffic for miles. That the only reason I could get a picture … we were going pretty slowly.

I know. Isn’t it grand? It was at an antique car show. Each one was more glorious than the last.

Old stone bridge passing over the Blackstone Canal via Rt. 16. Which is the main road from here to everywhere else. The old postal route.

Thank you! I guess, being that bridge carries Route 16, we ALL go over it a lot 🙂 It’s how you get from here to wherever.

OH! I thought (silly me) it was the bridge over the old canal up by Rice Pond…(West-?) Hartford Ave.It’s a short cut to Mendon…shorter than Rte 16 is…! So where on Rte 16 is this one?

Yikes — did that truck make it across the bridge without tipping over?

Oh, yes. That’s the major route from the valley to Boston via the old post road. And that bridge is in WAY better shape than most of our bridges. It’s a main road, so they have to keep it repaired. Some of the bridges on side roads, though, I’m afraid to go over them on foot.
