The World, As Reflected in Puddles

In my photography, I’m always on the lookout for images reflected in puddles.  The still, standing water serves as a mirror which faces up. These are like small lakes.

This neighborhood parking lot was treacherous to drive through or to walk through.  They’ve since filled some of the holes with dirt and gravel.  It’s better now but still pretty bad.  Erosion does its work.

I’ve done a series of these puddle photos.  It’s hard to find any that are worth shooting but I keep looking for them.

These were all taken in Detroit in 2015.

 

This one was in the rain under streetlight. It was raining, and the lights in the water looked like strange eyes.
