These are both fun, Dave, but I like this one best.
Flick.

The reflection is on the surface of a curious fountain in the shopping centre next to Victoria Coach Station. The fountain is shaped like a dumbell with a cone shaped section at the bottom down which the water runs down and an inverted cone at the top forming a canopy which is suspended from the ceiling by a circle of wires.

The reflections are in the canopy with the camera pointed straight up and the images are presented upside down. Composition with reflections is of course going to depend on luck to a certain extent and lots of cropping!

You may have noted that both these were 1/2 sec hand held...

Hi David - I like this one much better than the first.
The composition really works well - an interesting shot - I still can't quite work out what the reflection is in.
Great Stuff Kind Regards Jono
