Weekend Reflections: Puddles and Potholes

We've had a lot of snow the past 3 weeks and now it's warm so we have a lot of potholes (ouch) and a lot of puddles.

I found a tree growing in this puddle ...

That's a very cool shot, the car adds to the reflection. Nature and pollution all in one.

We were looking for reflections in the same places this week Dianne. :)
The snow is melting and the trees are ready to burst out in their summer foliage.
Nice work!

I really like the lighting on this shot! The tree, some ice, and the red taillight of the car create a great image. Nice one!

All those puddles are a good sign that spring is just arond the corner.

James said...

It sounds like your describing Newtown. The puddles are good for finding nice reflections like this. Trees will grow in the most amazing places. :) Great shot!

Daryl said...

I always love reflections. They are always far more truthful than the real thing eh?

Annie Bear said...

Ohhhh...I like this reflection.

We have puddles and potholes too, but it was 50 degress today.

Great photo capture! Love that splash of red in an otherwise monotone look.

Autumn Belle said...

Oh wow, what a splendid reflection of the tree on the ground. I love it!

Impressive shot, Dianne! It looks like it's in Black and White except for that little bit of red! :)

I love that picture Diane. How pretty. I know what you mean about the pot holes! It is pure craziness!

Thank heavens the snow has gone!
Such an amazing cool picture.
You should sign it up for ShadowShot Sunday too.
This is organized by Tracy in Australia and is international. It started a couple of years ago when Tracy saw some of my daughter's photos of Morocco!
Her address is heyharriet.blogspot.com

I have joined in again having been a bit absent.

What a neat find for you. The tree actually appears to be there in the puddle. Very Nice!

Helena said...

Very cool shot! We have potholes galore in our parking lot. I should take the camera out and see what I can find. :)

Woody said...

I really like how the water disappears and reappears, carving the reflection into sections (I'm a poet and didn't know it). Very well done!

Melli said...

I can handle puddles! EVEN with trees growing in them! But the potholes are gonna be the death of me! My Expedition never minded them. The Lucerne, on the other hand, LOATHES them! Anyway... that's a lovely almost black & white picture!

Unknown said...
