There are many styles in photography, but it is better to focus on one and make it your personal style. Photographing reflections is a style you can develop because reflections are mostly unnoticed by the average person, so therefore you have a chance at being unique and showing the world something only you have seen. This article helps you discover the types of reflections, their features, how to notice them, and a common mistake photographers make.
Reflection photos have a whole lot more going on in the frame than other types of photos. They double the elements and colors, they are more dramatic, and provide a balanced composition.
These are the most common types of reflections:
Natural reflections: These occur in nature such as waterscapes. An example of a photo would be a cityscape reflected on a river, or a group of birds reflected on a pond.
Architectural reflections: These occur on architectural surfaces. An example of a photo would be an old building reflected on a modern glass building in front of it.
Surreal reflections: These are the hardest to notice since they require an artistic eye. An example of a photo would be the Eiffel tower reflected on a puddle of water on a rainy day.
Abstract reflections: These show colors and lines without revealing what the reflected subject is. An example of a photo would be a colorful building reflected on water, showing wavy lines and colors.
