| Water abstraction | June 29, 2010 @ 8:12pm | I took a walk around our arts center yesterday with the idea of taking some shots of the old architecture.
They have a triangular pool there and I found this to be more interesting. The reflection is of one of the old windows distorted by the ripples in the water. It took me about 5 minutes of hanging around waiting for the tiny whirlpool to make some movement. Without it, the image would have looked quite static.
Acquaintances, tell you what you want to hear. Friends, tell you what you need to hear.
Give me friends, any day. |

There were literally 6 other people there taking pictures and they all gave me a funny look when I went to take this lol.
