Britomart, after dropping in on Russell DJing at Racket bar.
Great shots all. I'm sorry, I've been a bit slack lately.
Time for some spring gleaning.

You Aucks-about-town have such glamorous lives! This is the nearest I have to a puddle: a drip on a nasturtium leaf centre using the Raynox macro filter. I'm okay with the vignetting on this but I'm trying to eliminate it in other shots.

Running low on watery reflection pics…
Tranquil. Wish that was the bottom of my (lens) barrel Nora.

O nice Jackson and Hebe : )
Funny you should mention spring gleaning...
I spotted these guys spring cleaning this morning.
-
Hebe,
This whole brick wall is a rarity downtown (and there's a bit of light play), so it's worth a post.
-
Hebe,
Another macro digression: blue borage and cat fur. As you can see some brushing up needed!

on reflection, these guys are more throwbacks than beside themselves...

it will take a bit to get the cat looking as neat and tidy as the borage : )

I'm not sure who the blogger is at Learning to see light but she's Chchch based and has an excellent eye, and is chronicling her love of light in a way that I think many here would enjoy, and relate to... -

Jos,
That's cool Nora.
I think we need a spring thread folks!

Hate to say it, feels like we've been prematurely celebrating spring....

You've done well those many reflective winter images from the Auckland art gallery and environs this winter, Nora!
Check out the AAG Spring
in this foretaste of October with these from shortly after the gallery reopening, 2011 -Having a break in the café from the gallery's artworks, their power (and this thread retrospectively) encourages me to see things in a different way.

That multi-panelled reflection of the Auckland Art Gallery from within it seems a nice inversion of this multi-panelled painting of the Sargeant Gallery in Whanganui (with Veterans’ Steps and Memorial Hall to the fore and Ruapehu beyond). Known as ‘The Big Paint’, a one-day work of 100 artists and would-bes painting one panel each, later erected to enhance a brick wall by the Whanganui river-front for “two or three months” in March 2012. I’m glad it was still there in July 2013.

Nice: Hockneyesque, like his photo-montages of the US desert.

Nearby on the Whanganui riverfront - 'Bearing' by David McCracken. Reflecting allsorts including the river, while the dark fissure around the work is a schematic representation of the Whanganui River, headwaters in the front, around the back to enter the sea at far right.
Notably not kept as clean/shiny/polished as those in similar material in Beijing that Chris Waugh was showing us a few pages back. But still, photographer took the trouble to self-efface himself within the river fissure. Then thinks - would be interesting for a tangata-whenua viewer, cf. 'I am the river and the river is me'. -

Nice additions there ChrisW. Always a challenge to keep yourself out of shot in such a shiny round object. I like the gallery shots too, everything looks clean and shiny there, helps being so new I guess.
