Default Reflection in a storm pipe.

Photo was taken through the opening of a large storm culvert pipe and shows the reflection of the opposite opening in a puddle of water. Olympus E-520 with an Olympus Zuiko Digital 40 - 150 mm lens at f 4.4, 1/30 sec, ISO 400, 58 mm focal length, handheld shot. Had trouble balancing the overexposed opening light with the underexposed tunnel walls.

The tunnel itself is underexposed. I see the sky/background would be way overexposed if you metered your reading on the tunnel. Perhaps waiting for a cloudy moment or maybe late in the day would help with that.

Not a bad concept, though!

I like it. The figure of eight made by the opening and the reflection is a nice touch.

Always ok for DPS users to critique and edit my photos for instructional purposes.
