Windows are canvases on which light paints an interpretation of the surroundings. Sometimes the interpretation is accurate, sometimes it is closer to Cubism than reality.

Brilliant, I love it…very fond of these type of photos and not everyone is switched on enough to spot the opportunity like you did.

Glad you appreciate it, Paula. Reflections have fascinated me for a very long time, whether it is reflections in water, or glass. I am always on the look-out for them and the more bizarre they are, the happier I am.

Oh, marvellous! Ace reflections, great colours, Cubism indeed!

Thanks Sue – isn’t it extraordinary the way glass works. And special thanks to the glaziers and glass makers whose technical skills (or lack thereof) result in the chaotic reflections that we see in multi-paned windows like this.

Absolutely! Flaws in glass can create the most interesting effects

I like this a lot Andy. I always enjoy these ‘window reflection’ shots and this is one of the best. Very well seen.

Many thanks Alan. Photographed in Worthing actually when I ran out of ideas on the coast.

My first thought was of a jigsaw puzzle: its pieces arrayed across a table. The delightful irony, of course, is that this is the fully assembled puzzle. The pieces are just where they should be — at least for the moment!

Thanks Linda. The Jigsaw is an appropriate analogy, and with every step the jigsaw changes. These images turn up in unlikely places too, and sometimes the ones of old buildings have glass that is less flat and therefore more prone to produce the Picasso-esque versions.

Many thanks for your comment and welcome to my Blog, Susan. Reflections are one of the joys of life for me, I find a lot of them in London, but this one was found in the main street of Worthing. I’ve just had a first look at your Blog and look forward to following your blog entries.

Thanks Lynn. No control over the way the picture is fractured, but moving adjusts the fracture lines with every step.
