A while back at the '
Outskirts' festival my incredibly talented niece Jessica who not only did a lot of the organization for the festival but also had a stall selling her hand made 'fascinators' (small feathery creations to wear in the hair to the races, weddings etc.). Jessica asked me if I would take some shots of Aimee wearing the fascinator that she had bought on the day, to put on her
website. We combined it with photos for Aimee's
blog and it was only when I downloaded them that I noticed in the close ups I took to show Aimee's new eye make up, the reflections of moi and my camera leaning right in to take the shot!! Unexpected reflections can be such a bonus, hope you have a great weekend.....
That is true! Great reflection Grace!
ReplyDeleteVery cool! And a very beautiful girl. Love the reflections. I think someone had her eye on you!
ReplyDeleteI read today about a fellow who got bit by a shark not far from Perth. A rarity, the article said.
It is an arresting image, love Aimee's hair colour.
ReplyDeleteLove her red hair! Cool reflection!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun it is to find your reflection in and unexpected place and I might add, what beautiful eye!
ReplyDeleteNice images, Grace. And, Aimee is a pretty girl with an adventurous streak, with that bright hair color.
ReplyDeleteVery nice closeup. Love her hair color, it's very striking.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots and her hair is beautiful. To be young and wear such brightly colored hair...and to get away with it. Great shots, Grace.
ReplyDeleteHello Very nice images,
ReplyDeletehave a good weekend.
a hug.
Wow, that is some red hair! Love it.
ReplyDeleteNice reflection shot. Redheads win hands down everytime :-).
ReplyDeleteBeautiful eyes, beautiful hair, beautiful girl. And rather more male commenters than usual. Wonder why!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful eyes !
ReplyDeleteWhen it comes to catch something by taking pictures, surprises come from the most unexpected places!
ReplyDeleteCool!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing the places we find reflections .... I love Aimee's hair....just gorgeous
ReplyDeleteEye Eye!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fascinating picture with a big surprise in it. Great photo.
ReplyDeletethese are so wonderful!
ReplyDeleteOK, I KNOW we're meant to be looking at the eyes ... but I can't help noticing that KILLER hair colour!!!
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not, I have trouble looking at eyes closeup like this first shot. btw Enjoy the 'air' today.
ReplyDeleteYou should take a look at Jack's Hartford, Connecticut, Daily Photo shot today. The artist featured in his post could take your photo and put it to good use.
ReplyDeleteWonderful discovery of the unexpected reflections Grace. Fabulous captures.
ReplyDeleteWow! What an unexpected delight. Dave already sent you to Jack/Hartford blog to see and compare your blogs. Personally, I prefer the subject in yours! Your niece is very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant serendipty - always marvellous when we discover we've taken an even better photograph than the one we thought we were taking.
ReplyDeletePretty eyes at that! Funny how we notice things other than what we were photographing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the visit...Plz come again! Janey
Hypnotic and fascinating!
ReplyDeletegreat image. such a treat for you to get a surprise with your image. and i agree with your comments about Egypt. Everyone should go and experience it at least once. the history and architecture of the pyramids and Sphinx and at Abu Simbel are truly unique feelings and experience about what people accomplished so long ago
ReplyDeleteI love it! I think little photo surprises are the best. She's pretty cute too!
ReplyDeleteV
A very creative and unexpected reflection for sure. I like the shade of her hair. I wonder if it would look good on me. :)
ReplyDeleteIl existe des yeux vraiment fascinants. De près, souvent, ils parlent. Et ne mentent jamais.
ReplyDeleteJoyeux week-end, Gracie!
It's just been decreed that fascinators are no longer allowed in the Royal Enclosure: they frighten the horses! Hats are still permitted. (And to think, a year ago, we didn't know what a fascinator was :-)
ReplyDeleteOh this is incredible!!!
ReplyDeleteEr... did you see that Picnik is stopping? :-(
Great with that orange hair - I like the unusual!
ReplyDeletethat is so cool, the reflection in her eyes...i love how colorful she is!
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful eyes
ReplyDeleteI love love love her hair! WOnderful photo, Grace :D
ReplyDeleteBoth photos of Aimee are great.
ReplyDeleteGreat macro!
ReplyDeleteVery cool! The top shot is amazing and there's a great reflection too.
ReplyDeleteLovely expressive eyes.
ReplyDeleteGreetings.
Beautiful eyes. I love it!
ReplyDeleteFascinating... buy we don't get to see the fascinator she's wearing ? I'm off to her website.
ReplyDeleteI love this hair!!!
