a sweet moment. :heart: my identical (doctors call them mirror image) twin daughters are a reflection of each other and then they are reflected in the water's surface (another mirror image); individually and together.

i have entered this into the PhotographersClub contest "Mirrors" - you can't get much better than this in my opinion.

i really appreciate feedback & comments and faves. :aww:

i apologise for not getting back to you about your request to use 'a reflection of a reflection' as your subject. i have been unwell and not on deviantart for quite some time. i must say i am very flattered. yes i will give permission for this photograph to be used as long as it is done respectfully and appropriately as they are my daughters. i would only ask that, if its possible, i would really appreciate a copy that i could frame for them for their room. again, thank you for your interest and thank you for your honesty and appreciating copyright. i look forward to your reply (i will check now i know you need my permission).

First let me say, nice concept!
Second, I want to clarify I MEAN NO OFFENSE OR DISRESPECT!!!

I think I have some ideas that would clean this pic up a bit and provide more of what you were looking for.
1) reduce the lighting above the pool. Consider taking the shot in the evening if this was outdoors.
(Increase the light beneath the surface, either with flash or via other means.)
2) get the girls COMPLETELY below the surface. This will let all of them be reflected.
3) get them to stop breathing/splashing long enough to clear the bubbles from the frame.
4) with them below the surface, not playing and breathing, the surface of the pool should become like glass, giving a great reflection.

It should improve the shot for what you were attempting, a mirror squared type thing.

This is still a great shot. But to me, it conveys more of the twins joy in play, than the reflection squared theme.

Again, no disrespect intended. Hope this can help you in the future in some small way.

thank you for your feedback.i do not take your comments as offensive or disrespectful. after all the only we can improve is to take advise. this was taken at the beginning of my underwater experimental photography. i do understand all your points and the way they can improve the shot. unfortunately i have to use a public pool which causes light issues. i have since been given an underwater camera which now has quality lense and flash etc. considering this was taken on a cheap horrible $30 camera i was amazed it was as good as it is. also this was to convey the twins joy in play and in each other considering they are my children but i was experimenting with angles etc.

hopefully this summer we can practise and improve some more. again. thanks.

You're welcome ^^. I have a twinsister myself, so maybe the photo is more special when you've known moments like that yourself, but still it is a wonderful shot!
