This is the third of three "puddle" shots taken last Saturday week with my camera phone.
The first was L is for Legs.
The second was Fag ends in the Sky.
This was taken when I turned round after taking the first and looked at the sun shining straight down into a spread out puddle outside the entrance to Clarendon Mall. I moved slightly to the side so that the sun was mostly hidden behind one of the beams. When it was no longer flooding out the shot, I pressed the shutter.
As a result we end up with dark shadows of the beams as well as reflections.

The shadows and reflections have a great style. My imagination says that the window pane is an arrowhead on the the bow that looks like an an arrow to be fired at a target. Neat capture!
Here light and shadow
play in rain puddles—ah, see
how they dance and shine!
Stony Shadows
next time it rains I am definitely going to be out looking at puddles!
Nice shot Gerald.
love the concept - and reality of The Puddle Shot..
super shadow/reflection shot
this is a super shot!
That is a very interesting and deceptively simple shot. There is lots to look at in there. I like your description of how you took it. Fag ends in the sky is great too! I noticed a fag end in one of my photos for SSS that I hadn't seen until I posted it.
Terrific shadow shot, Gerald! Love the puddle shot! What a great one for the day! Hope you have a great weekend!

Looks like the sun is shining on you at the moment Gerald.
Aren't camera phones amazing? Fun shot, Gerald.

Shadows and reflections dance so beautifully together in this watery shot! Love the hint of colour in the reflection!
A lovely capture of both reflections and shadows! Have a great week ahead!
Good Stuff.
Almost mystical and surely mysterious!
Very clever shot - and how did you resist the temptation to jump in the puddle?
