Reflections in the Water

I have always been in love with reflections in the water. They make the  object of admiration all that more mystical.  The item seems so near yet feels far at the same time.

The above shot was taken at Tokyo Disneyland of one of the towers leading up to Cinderella’s Fairytale Castle.

This is another reflection shot which I took. I love how the boat looks in the water from afar.

This is the shot which started my interest in capturing such reflection shots. This photograph was feature in my post on Hippoportamus over at my photography blog.

Do you admire reflections too?

Jumping Fun

It can be really challenging getting the kids to line up for a posed shot.  I wanted to get the boys to jump off from the totem together.  As you can see from the above collage I only managed to get Monkey boy to jump on cue. I guess with more then one person jumping it can be quite difficult to co-ordinate.

I gave up  trying to catch the “perfect shot” as Tiger girl wanted in with the boys having so much fun jumping around. She too wanted to jump off from the totem which really scared me as it was really rather high for her height.  I had to hold both her hands to make sure she landed safely after jumping.

Do your kids love jumping too?
