This is a black and white film photograph I took of a pond's surface on a gray day. The surface is so still that it creates a mirror effect and is a little disorienting because it is hard to be certain what is up and what is down. But the image is oriented as it was taken without editing. So the silhouetted vegetation that appears against the reflected sky is only reflection. In the upper left quadrant a native plant juts out of the water and you see its base above the water, but its leaves and branches are reflected in the water below it in the bottom left quadrant of the photo. In the foreground, native grasses are out of focus and appear much larger than they are. You have the sensation of peering through them to the pond surface. The top of the image is a jumble of grasses and detritus that are growing out of and sitting on top of the pond water. A small stick is also floating on top of the water near another stick that is apparently stuck in the mud more or less vertically sticking out of the water and reflected in its surface, forming a small parabola.

A photo I took using expired film that developed with a greenish tinge. In the very center is a deer in the distance looking towards the camera. It's standing right where a path betweeen everygreens opens up just enough to see small bit of what lies down the path. In the foreground are low grasses and earth.
