People and Phones

Did you ever notice that most people are on their phones while walking around the city. I've always noticed this phenomenon, but it's become even more apparent since I've taken up photography. It's almost comical!

Everyday Moments: Reflections

This month for our "everyday moments" photo circle we focused on "reflections". We can find reflections everywhere in our environment such as, in a puddle, a glass building's facade, or even someone's sunglasses. I have chosen a photo that subtly displays reflections of hands resting on the black surface shown. A second reason for choosing this photo is the emotion I feel when looking at it. It was taken at the National September 11 Memorial reflecting pools. As I look at this photo of hands resting on the black stone inscribed with those that lost their lives on September 11, I can't help but think about what each individual is thinking about or "reflecting" on.

Please take a moment to see what my friend and fellow photographer, Katherine has captured this month. Thanks for taking the time to look. Comments and critiques are greatly appreciated.
