REFLECTIONS


WHAT IS REFLECTION?

As a man I don't use much mirror like ladies do.Once a while,I do need to see how I look like.Then,we men go to the washroom.Reflection is the mirror image of something but not necessarily reflected by the actual mirror.Anything that reflect light-like glass on the table as shown above and the transparent glass divider at the railway station as shown below.What we see in the reflections are sometimes beyong our own imaginations.How did I see that way?It all depends on case to case basis.The light is the common denominator in  the few variables in the equation!



Below is the view seen from under a bridge.The water behaves like the mirror but the semi cicular underpass has become a tunnel by itself.The water is no where to be seen.When real image and the reflected image merged together,the line of symmetry disappered.I was so close to the subject matter that I was drown in the water and dissappeared like water  under the brilliance of light.The mirror fades away..Writing this note made me breathless.


Mirror reflection,at best is still a distortion of the reality due to lateral inversion.In general,reflection is the interplay of light with the space-time ambiance.It changes with the variables.In fact,the so called reality of what we see is actually already a reflection captured by our retina.To see reality,we need the experienced  eyes of the knowledgable  minds.

COMPARISON BETWEEN MY IPHONE 14 ProMax VS FUJIFILM XT20

No camera is suitable for every occasion. Here is a simple comparison. Both have their own strengths and weaknesses, and I love both. When I go photowalking with friends, I use more smartphones than the Fujifilm XT20. FUJIFILM XT20 iPhone 14 Pro Max (Smartphone) vs Fujifilm X-T20 (Mirrorless) – Image Quality Breakdown IPHONE 14 PRO MAX 1. Sensor & Processing iPhone 14 Pro Max Uses a 48 MP quad-pixel sensor that down-samples to 12 MP by default; ProRAW unlocks full 48 MP output   . Features Apple’s “Photonic Engine” that enhances detail, color, and low-light performance via computational photography  . Produces excellent detail, color accuracy, and dynamic range—especially in daylight; however, images sometimes show over-sharpening on foliage/glossy textures  . DXOMARK cites strengths like vivid color, wide dynamic range, sharp detail, and low noise; potential drawbacks include clipping highlights and noise indoors  . Fujifilm X-T20 Features a...

Let the photo speak first?

  Should photographers explain their photos, or let the images speak for themselves? A strong photograph can stand on its own. It invites people to look, pause, and interpret the moment in their own way. But sometimes a few words from the photographer reveal the quiet story behind the frame — what was seen, felt, or noticed in that fleeting moment. Perhaps the balance is this: Let the photo speak first. Let the words gently reflect afterwards. 📷
